Ruggedization of Electronic Circuits? Encapsulation is One of The Best-kept Protection Secrets

Posted by Vlad David on Oct 25, 2023 12:54:46 PM

It's no secret that conformal coatings increase the lifetime of electronic devices by providing a thin barrier that strengthens their ability to withstand harsh environmental conditions. That said, a lesser-known truth is adhesives and encapsulants provide a significantly higher level of protection on the entire assembly.

Why is that? Well, adhesives and encapsulants promote assembly protection by:

  • creating environmental seals that protect against moisture and corrosion
  • providing high-temperature resistance
  • increasing shock and vibration-dampening
  • generating strong bonds to a variety of substrates
  • maintaining low shrinkage
  • offering thermal conductivity

Adoption of plug in -electric vehicles (EVs) has been slower than many expected, but there is little question the next few years will see adoption accelerate. Your hypersensitive dog will have to find new visitors to harass when your delivery drivers arrive without notice, driving to your door silently in all-electric commercial vans. Many of your favorite suppliers and stores have already ordered these vehicles. Game-changing battery and charging developments are eliminating range anxiety, and autonomous driving controls and safety innovations are in the final stages of building our trust.

How Best to Protect PCB Mounted Components from Vibration

Posted by Albert Hernandez on Feb 26, 2018 1:00:00 PM

Electronics continue to be placed into harsher environments, and PCB component vibration dampening remains a challenge for many industries. When the solder connection strength is not going to be sufficient to withstand years of vibration, there is a solution: staking materials.

Numerous fields of industry manufacture products that are prone to high-vibration environments. Some of them are:
