Services

Circuit Center Inc provides electronics manufacturing to a wide range of industries and the flexibility of the services is the key ingredient. You can pick and choose any combination of the items from the full range of services provided.

 

Pre-Manufacturing Services 

• Design package development from concept : Bring in your concept and we will design the necessary circuit board , hardware and software to materialize it. Our team of design engineers has developed a variety of very successful electronic devices and systems which are currently being mass produced.

• Schematics and Layout Design : The design services include schematic design and component selection , test strategy and development , program development for logic devices , schematic capture and prototype development and proof of concept.

• Proof of Concept : Fast prototyping services facilitate early verification of concept.

• Design for Manufacturability (DFM) : Whether we perform the design or not , consultation is provided in the DFM studies at the pre-manufacturing stage to ensure that the product is designed to optimise its manufacturability to increase reliability and reduce manufacturing costs.

• Design for Interconnection and Packaging : Our engineers will share with you the wealth of experience and expertise developed at Circuit Center to select the most suitable interconnection and packaging decisions.

• Design for Test (DFT) : DFT is a crucial issue in the design of circuit boards. The wide range of testing strategies will be reviewed and selected for your application . Download test strategy document : test strategies.

• Prototype Manufacturing : In the current highly competitive environment , fast , reliable prototyping can make or break a project.That is why we provide a wide range of prototyping services :Prototyping Services

• Environmental Stress Test (EST) : ESS and EST services identify  scenarios of possible field failures in the development stage .

Manufacturing Services

• Materials management and component purchasing : The material management operation at Circuit Center involves sourcing of components from approved vendors worldwide. Our office in Guangzhou in China carefully monitors the quality of material purchased from the far east and gives our customers the advantage of world wide sourcing for parts and PCB's.    

• Rigid and Flex assembly : Both rigid and flexible boards are routinely assembled . Propriety techniques for automatic assembly of flex circuit boards have been developed by our R&D team of engineers which has greatly benefited our clients.

• Complete range of component assembly : Surface mount technology involves screen printing of solder paste and adhesive , high accurate component placement , and carefully controlled reflow conditions. Our capabilities in these areas are truly exceptional. All our machines have the most advanced Vision Recognition Technology to achieve the level of accuracy required of the most advanced applications. Boards of up to 510 by 508 mm are printed to an accuracy of +/- 25 microns. The full spectrum of components ranging from large area array components ( BGA's , CCGA's,high density ball grid array surface mount connectors..) to 0402 and 0201 chips are routinely processed.

• Lead Free Processing : Since January 2006 Circuit Center became ROHS compliant. Currently 75% of production is ROHS compliant and the rest is leaded processing. Circuit Center has also been involved in various investigations in the processes , materials ,  and reliability of lead free processes through its active R&D projects.   Download R&D project titles : R&D projects  :

• Conformal Coating : UV-cured and air cured conformal coating are applied with automatic , robotic coating equipment with precision and repeatable results.

• Test Development : Our team of test engineers will provide the necessary consultation for selection of best test strategies.  Download test strategies document  Test Strategies   

• Functional, ICT, and Boundary Scan Testing : All test development is performed in house by our test engineering team.

• System Integration : Integration of the systems and configuration into the final product .

• Packaging and customized documentation : Products are packaged into customised packages together with relevant documentation and shipped to the final destination .

Prototyping Services

We understand how critical it is to provide fast, accurate, and quality prototypes so as to reduce the time to market time.

 Irrespective of the complexity of the assemblies we provide 

                    24 hour    3 day     1 week      and 2 week

turn around times for prototype manufacturing. Providing a fast prototype build of an assembly with over 2000 parts is a routine operation in Circuit Centre.
