Cable Assemblies include one or more wires that run together in a single sleeve with a connector or plug on each end. Cable assemblies could be groups of wires or cables bundled together. They are wrapped in a thermoplastic or vinyl sleeve, cable assemblies are ideal for directing groups of wires and cables around obstacles. Cable assemblies are designed to perform specific functions that is determined by the plugs, terminals, and connectors that are found on each end.

Why Consider Using Through Hole Printed Circuit Boards? In the printed circuit board business, there are two primary ways to mount components onto the circuit board: through-hole mounting and surface mounting. Through-hole mounting is the older technology and requires the circuit board manufacturer to drill holes through the PCB and place leads into the holes. More recently, surface mounted technology has taken over the field. Through-Hole Components Through-hole components come in one of two types

How to Create an Electronic Prototype Do you have a big idea for a new electronic product? We all know that ideas are a dime a dozen, so if you really want to get your idea off the ground, eventually you’ll need to create a prototype. A prototype, simply put, is a physical manifestation of a product. There are many important reasons to create a prototype. In this article, we’ll also review some quick tips

Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) are at the heart of modern electronics—but as devices become smaller, more powerful, and more widely used in harsh environments, protecting these sensitive components has become more critical than ever. That’s where conformal coating in PCB protection steps in as a game-changer. Whether it’s a consumer product exposed to daily wear or a military-grade device deployed in extreme climates, PCBs need an added layer of protection. Conformal coating provides exactly that:
