Introduction SMT (Surface Mount Technology) assembly is a key process in PCB (Printed Circuit Board) manufacturing where electronic components are mounted directly onto the surface of a PCB. As electronics continue getting smaller and more complex, the use of SMT has become ubiquitous across consumer electronics, telecommunications, automotive, aerospace, medical Read more…
Introduction Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are essential components in nearly every modern electronic device, from smartphones and laptops to industrial equipment and medical devices. As an engineer, maker, or business owner, sourcing high-quality PCBs is crucial for bringing your products to life. While overseas manufacturing has its benefits, partnering with Read more…
Introduction Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are essential components in nearly every electronic device. As products become smaller and more complex, engineers are turning to flexible PCBs (flex PCBs) as solutions. Flex PCBs offer a number of advantages over traditional rigid boards including flexibility, space savings, and improved reliability. However, designing Read more…
Surface mount technology (SMT) is a method for assembling printed circuit boards (PCBs) by mounting electronic components directly onto the surface of the PCB. This process has largely replaced the older through-hole technology and has enabled greater miniaturization and density of electronic circuitry. In SMT PCB assembly, components are placed Read more…
Introduction to EMS Providers for PCB Assembly Electronic manufacturing services (EMS) providers offer a range of solutions for companies that design and manufacture electronic devices and components.

Introduction to PCBs A printed circuit board (PCB) is the foundation of an electronic device, providing mechanical support and electrical connections between components. PCBs contain conductive traces etched from copper sheets and laminated onto a non-conductive substrate. Electronic components are soldered to pads on the PCB to create a functional Read more…
Introduction Printed circuit board (PCB) assembly is the process of soldering electronic components onto a PCB. One of the most critical steps in PCB assembly is applying solder paste onto the PCB pads and holes prior to component placement. This is done using a metal stencil that contains apertures matching Read more…
Surface mount technology (SMT) is a method of producing electronic circuits where components are mounted directly onto the surface of printed circuit boards (PCBs). This manufacturing process has largely replaced the traditional through-hole technology and has enabled further miniaturization of electronics. In this article, we will explore the key steps Read more…
Surface mount technology (SMT) has revolutionized the electronics manufacturing industry. With SMT, components are mounted directly onto the surface of printed circuit boards (PCBs) rather than through holes in the board. This allows for miniaturization and automation of the assembly process. One of the most critical tools in SMT assembly Read more…
Introduction Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are essential components of most modern electronic devices. A PCB mechanically supports and electrically connects electronic components through conductive copper tracks, pads and other features etched from copper sheets laminated onto a non-conductive substrate. PCBs can be single sided, double sided or consist of multiple Read more…
