Most assemblers in the electronic industry use no-clean solder paste mainly to eliminate having to clean the circuit-board assemblies. Manufacturers such as Rush PCB prefer to run all production with ...

Three pen-style PCB cleaning tools from MicroCare remove RMA (rosin mildly activated), OA (organic acid), no-clean, and lead-free flux residue quickly and safely from PCBs. The three flux-removing ...

Electric motors are easy to make; remember those experiments with wire-wrapped nails? But what’s easy to make is often hard to engineer, and making a motor that’s small, light, and powerful can be ...

Printed-circuit-board (PCB) substrate material, like FR-4 glass epoxy, is a poor conductor of heat. Conversely, copper is an excellent conductor of heat. So, more copper area on a PCB is ideal from a ...
