Are you sweating over solder?
|
If solder works well in your design, then you probably do not need to replace it with an electrically conductive adhesive. Adhesives usually cost more and have a few functional limitations that might not make them suitable for attaching traditional PCB components. However, you may want to use these adhesives when lead-free solder is giving you a problem, or when you are designing a new product that will get smaller with succeeding generations. The shift to lead-free solder, recent improvements in adhesive rheology, and a move within the electronics industry towards more flexible substrates, printed electronics, and miniaturization are making these materials a more viable option for many applications.
