Solder Flux: What Is It and How to Use It

You’ve got your soldering iron, your components, and a PCB layout that’s just waiting to come to life. You start soldering, but the solder just doesn’t flow the way you’d like—it forms a blob instead of a clean joint. Enter solder flux. Far...

PCB Etchback: Everything You Need to Know

Ever wondered how multilayer printed circuit boards maintain optimal transmitting signals between their layers? The secret is printed circuit board (PCB) etchback. This technique, used specifically with plated through-hole (PTH) procedures, involves producers adding a...

What is PCB Baking and Should You Use It?

What makes printed circuit boards (PCBs) so reliable? Although many processes are involved, one that caught our attention is PCB baking. PCB baking helps eliminate potential defects and ensure optimal performance. It also protects small and delicate printed circuit...

High TG PCB: Everything You Need to Know

As electronic technology advances, there is a growing need for high-Tg boards. Tg, a key property of epoxy, signifies the temperature range at which the base material undergoes a transition from a solid and rigid state to a rubbery state. Different PCBs possess...
