PCB Assembly and component

At Rush PCB Inc., we make all types of PCBs, including those with castellated holes. In this article, we will overview castellated holes, their history, applications, benefits, design attributes, [...]

Contrary to popular belief that automation is a peril to be avoided at best, Rush PCB Inc advises dependence on the advancement of technology. In fact, without automation there will likely be no [...]

Tombstoning is an issue occurring during the soldering process when all components on a board are anchored to its bare surface. While there are many that will point fingers of blame on [...]

The electronic industry follows two main types of automated soldering techniques for assembling their PCBs. These are wave soldering and reflow soldering. There are major differences between the [...]

This time, we will introduce two methods for creating wiring patterns. When using copper-clad laminates (CCL), the “subtractive method” is used to combine the film and photoresist, [...]

FFC Connector The FFC connector is an advanced version of the card edge connector. The FFC connector was developed from a card edge connector for rigid substrates, specifically for flexible [...]

As PCB designers, fabricators, and assemblers, we wear a lot of hats here at RUSH PCB. We’re always working to design and build PCBAs that are the best that they can be. But sometimes we are [...]

Identifying both hot and cold spots on the PCBA are very important to set up right reflow profile as the Conveyor speed in the oven should allow both the hot and the cold spots to reach [...]

In Lead-free (Pb-free) reflow soldering for SMT PCBAs, soldering defects associated with thermal profiling can be mitigated by a thorough understanding of the variables affecting the process, as [...]

Resistors are passive components necessary for use in circuit board assemblies. Rush PCB Inc uses resistors in their PCB assemblies to resist the flow of electric current. Electronic circuits use [...]
