Electrical installation processes are based on a variety of approaches and procedures designed to ensure proper circuit operation. Consequently, it is essential to have knowledge of various techniques involving the manipulation, insertion, and soldering of electronic circuits.
Electrical circuits rely on boards made up of conductive materials that are placed on a non-conductive base, usually made of materials such as plastic, ceramic, or fiberglass.
These assemblies are commonly used in industrial sectors such as automotive and printed circuit boards, as they require specialized machinery, technical expertise, and often final testing.
Electrical Assembly Techniques There are a variety of techniques for performing an electrical assembly, but in general, they can be divided into two categories: rigid electronic circuits and flexible electronic circuits.
In rigid electronic circuits, we find through-hole technology (THT), in which components are inserted into the holes of printed circuit boards using conductive tubes. On the other hand, SMD technology involves directly soldering the surface of the plates using pads.
In assembly techniques we also find flexible electronic circuits, also known as "printed electronics". This approach is based on assembling circuits using electronic elements such as transparent polyester conductive films. These can be manufactured using the same components as rigid circuits on printed circuit boards, allowing the board to be optimally adapted to the intended use.
In addition, in relation to printed electronics, flexible electronics can be manufactured, allowing devices to be curved to fit specific surfaces. This opens up endless possibilities in terms of design and functionality, providing unlimited versatility in its use.
