Is lead-free (Pb-Free) also on your mind? It should be. Lead-free (Pb-Free) will impact almost everyone in the electronics industry – from suppliers of component, board and materials like paste and flux to manufacturers and users of electronics products and equipment. Also expect considerable investment both in human resources and capital equipment. Your relationship with your suppliers and customers will also be tested. There’s a reason that in the United States we no longer allow

What Do You Actually Need to Make a Printed Circuit Board? Printed circuit boards are in all manner of electronics. If it has computing power, then it is likely to include a printed circuit board. What is a PCB actually made of, and what components does it include? Surprisingly, PCBs are not too complicated. The first ingredient you’ll need is the printed circuit board itself. The board won’t be of much use until you assemble

The electrical and thermal conductivity that copper creates makes it an obvious choice as a conductor in printed circuit board (PCB) construction, but in many applications that require flexible circuit boards, copper alloy metals can be far better to use. Some of those applications include using conditions of extreme heat or cold, where copper’s low resistance becomes a liability. Constantan is an alloy consisting of 55% copper and 45% nickel, this is one of several
