Key Considerations for Medical PCB Assembly

 

Key Considerations for Medical PCB Assembly

PCBs used for medical electronics needs to be assembled according to the strictest standards to ensure the stability and reliability of medical equipment during operation. It is a disaster that medical equipment fails when diagnosing or treating patients. So no matter what type of medical device a PCB is used, it needs to be designed, manufactured, and assembled exactly the right way.

 

Important Aspects We Need To Consider

► Safety

Security is our first concern when it comes to medical PCB assembly, especially for some medical devices that are directly used on and in patients, if there is a problem during operation, such as circuit failure, it will endanger life. When we design and assemble PCBs used in such medical devices, we must ensure that they can still protect the safety of patients even be used in extreme conditions such as ultra-high temperature or ultra-low temperature, or exposed to liquids. Working with an experienced PCB manufacturer who is well-versed in the highly reliable PCB design and assembly can help you to reduce safety risks and solve problems well.

 

►Reliability

During the medical PCB assembly process, reliability is another key consideration that guarantees the high performance of medical devices and equipment, which is also critical to make sure the equipment is performing as expected and delivering consistent results.

►Regulatory Compliance

Unlike other types of PCB, medical PCBs must meet stringent standards to ensure their quality and reliability. In addition, the medical PCB assembly process should also comply with kinds of standards and regulations. Therefore, it is critical for manufacturers to understand these standards while being able to provide detailed records and documentation for all procedures involved in the assembly process.

 

►Cleanliness

Inorganic salts, acids, and other residues are often left on the circuit boards during the manufacturing and soldering of medical PCBs, and these can lead to corrosion of PCB components, causing electrical equipment to degrade over time and eventually fail. To solve this problem, removing contaminants is essential to guarantee the high cleanliness of the PCBs, and the reliability of the PCB assembly, as well as the medical equipment, can be improved.

 

►Production Timeline

For medical device companies, it is important to develop a new medical device and bring it to the market with a short turnaround time. While the development timeline is decided by the PCB manufacturers, experienced manufacturers know how to speed up the progress and improve the efficiency of medical PCB assembly. Hence, choosing a PCB manufacturer who can adapt to a tight production timeline and short the product's time to market is quite important.
