Basic Knowledge of SMT, a Very Practical Surface Mount Technology of Electronic Components

The full name of SMT is Surface mount (or mounting) technology. SMT is the abbreviation of Surface Mount Technology, also known as surface mounting or surface installation technology. It is currently the most popular technology and process in the electronic assembly industry. Generally speaking, the specified temperature in the SMT workshop is 25±3℃. SMT Mounting Machine Solder Paste: When printing solder paste, the materials and tools required for preparation are solder paste, stencil, scraper, wiping paper, clean paper, cleaning agent, and stirring knife. The components of solder paste include: metal powder, solvent, flux, anti-sag agent, and activator. Its main components are tin powder and flux, with a volume ratio of approximately and a weight ratio of approximately 9:1. The flux starts to volatilize in the constant temperature zone and performs chemical cleaning operations; the main functions of the flux in soldering are to remove oxides, break the surface tension of molten tin, ...

Flexible PCB

  What is FPC? FPC, or Flexible Printed Circuit , originated in the 1970s in the United States as a technology developed for aerospace rocket technology. It is a printed circuit made from polyester film (PET) or polyimide (PI) as the substrate, characterized by high reliability and excellent flexibility. FPC can be freely bent and folded in three-dimensional space. The structure of flexible circuits includes insulating films, conductors, and adhesives, acting like a universal glue in the electronic world, bonding various components together to enable communication and collaboration. Advantages of FPC High-Density Wiring Capability : The ability to bend and connect circuits to necessary positions allows soft boards (flexible PCB) to be used in small-sized, high-density applications. High Reliability : R-FPC utilizes advanced manufacturing processes and materials to ensure circuit stability while enhancing the reliability of the flexible circuit board. Good Mechanical Performance : T...
