Why Printed Circuit Boards are Important for Electronics?

Wednesday, December 7th, 2022

Printed Circuit Boards are the core of the electronics devices, and they exist in everywhere and be everything from your electronic equipment such as mobile phone, computers, so what are they? Let’s explore the secrets together and know why they become more common as technology advances.

What are Printed Circuit Boards?

A printed circuit board also known as PCB for short, is an electronic board for connecting metal circuits by mounting different electronic components in a device and have it do its functions.

PCB is made of fiberglass and laminate materials or a composite epoxy with conductive, it can be made to varies shapes and sizes depends on what applications it will be used for—some have many holes on it while some only have several pads or traces.

In most of devices, we can see there are many components or wires mounted or connected on the surface of PCB, which comes into two different pathways –surface mount and through-hole. Surface mount is a technology that can be abbreviated as SMT, it is a famous technical that mount electronic components (typically SMDs) attached on top of a pad by melted solder paste. Through-hole generally refers to components that have wires through the plated-through-holes that drilled into the circuit board. Both ways are commonly use, but currently with the fast development of the technology advance, surface mount is more popular than through-hole as it is more convenient for production.

What the Functions of Printed Circuit Boards?

The main functions of a PCB is to connect different components and achieve a communication between components and devices, that can be used for everywhere you can think of – Computer, phones, televisions, tablets, cameras, projectors, and so on….

For a simple example, a phone has a PCB that can connect screen, the buttons, cameras, and the circuits on the both sides. Without this board, those components wouldn’t be able to transmit signals and talk to each other and the phone would cease to function.

In addition, electronic equipment using printed board enable to avoid the error of manual wiring, and can realize the automatic insertion or installation of electronic components, automatic soldering, automatic detection by communicate with each other, to ensure the quality of electronic products, improve labor productivity, protect components from damaged, reduce costs, and easy to maintenance.

The advantages of Printed Circuit Boards

PCB performs a number of advantages in electronic industries, a most significant feature is they make products be smaller and more portable as its density circuits and components communication. The density circuits on PCB allows it take up much space for components so you can get a smaller product.

  • High density

Over the past decades, the high density of printed boards has been developed with the improvement of integrated circuits and the advancement of installation technology.

  • High reliability

Through a series of checks, tests and aging tests, the PCB can be guaranteed to work reliably for a long time (generally 20 years).

  • Designability

For various performance (electrical, physical, chemical, mechanical, etc.) requirements, can PCB be achieved to such requirements in short time and high efficiency according to design standard rules.

  • Maintainability

By means of standard PCB design rules, once the program or device failure, users fix the devices quickly.

  • Cooling abilities

Overheating is one of the biggest reasons of electronics failure, so by keeping them cool with a PCB, you can increase the lifetime of your product.

Types of Printed Circuit Boards

Best Technology provides different kinds of PCBs and PCBAs for our customers, for a quickly reviewing, we listing as below:

  • Rigid Printed Circuit Board (FR4-PCB)
  • Flex Printed Circuit Board (FPCB)
  • Rigid-Flex PCB
  • Metal Core Printed Circuit Board (MCPCB)
  • Ceramic Board
  • SinkPAD Board
  • Other special PCB such as heavy copper PCB, HDI PCB, RF PCB, and so forth
  • PCB assembly

In a word, with the development of electronics, it’s necessary to have a functional part like the PCB that can keep up with the demand. Next step, contact us if you have PCB demands.

Why Do I Need to Pay Paypal Fee ?

Tuesday, September 23rd, 2014

It’s very convenient to send money via Paypal, using your debit or credit card, esp. for small amount of money (<=$600), because you can save a lot of time and money will arrive at our account in most of cases (except e-Check). See How to Send and Receive Money via Paypal.

This is why when you order MCPCB, Ceramic PCB, FR4 PCB,SMT/PCBA, or special PCB from us, if amount is small, we suggest to use Paypal.

And an important thing is: usually it’ll be free of charge for you to send money. See what said on Paypal website: https://www.paypal.com/c2/webapps/mpp/paypal-fees

sending payment free

sending payment free

sending payment is usually free, but at the same time, Paypal will charge money on people whom will receive money from Paypal, so that Paypal can earn money.  See how much Paypal will charge on each transferring:

Of course we have applied discount and only need to pay $3.9+$0.30 per time.

For examples, if you send us $100.00, then Paypal will charge us $100*4% + $0.3=$4.30, and we will receive only $95.70, not $100.

In order to receive full $100.00, buyer should pay $104.37, and Paypal will charge us $4.37 ($104.37*3.9% + $0.3=$4.37), and then we will receive $100.00 ($104.37-$4.37).

In above examples, paypal will deduct 4.37% ($4.37/$100=4.37%) of amount you send. This is why we will ask our customer to pay 4% transferring fee, in order to make calculation more simple.

Normally the cost we quote excludes any transferring fee and need to receive full amount, so we need our customer to support us to pay the Paypal fee.

In fact, even add that fee, it’s still cheaper and more convenient for buyer to pay via Paypal than via bank, if amount is less than $600.00.

If Amount is much bigger, then we will suggest send money via bank as normally wire transferring fee will be about $25-$50 each time.

Any good idea about payment to save time and money, feel free to contact us. Your comments are always welcome!

How to Send Money via Paypal

Thursday, September 29th, 2011

As a convenient payment method, esp. for small amount less $500, Paypal is welcomed in our company when you order prototype or pilot running of circuit board, or SMT stencil. In most of case, it’ll arrive at our company A/C immediately, except the “eCheck” method  which normally take 3-5 business days. Free for you to use, Paypal only charge fee on receiver (beneficiary)

If it’s your first time you try to send Paypal to us, or to other people, then you can find the answers in help center of Paypal, but a picture worth thousands of words.  So I wrote this artcile and hope this will help people understand it. After you register an A/C, and login in Paypal, then see following:

A) Send Money to Paypal A/C

Send money to your customers, your friends is very easily. Login your A/C and click “Send Money” on top position and you will see two opinions: “Send money online” and “Pay for eBay items”. I take a picture showing “send money online”.

Send Money via Paypal 1

Just input the A/C No. (Actually it’s an Email address), amount of money and purpose of this fund, and click “Continue”. You will see a new page to confirm the A/C No, amount:

Send Money via Paypal 2

You can also write a message to receipt, limited to 300 characters.

Send Money Via Paypal

After checking everything is right, then confirm it and money will be sent out.

Very easily? Yeah! Next time let me show how to receive the fund your customers or friends send to you.

So my friend, if you order circuit board, or SMT stencil, or anything else from us (Best Technology), small amount (less than $500), you can choose this way.

All right. Is everything clear for you now? Any question, write email or leave message here, we will answer it very fast.
