Engineering drawing of a subassembly All products at Street Technology begin their life in Engineering.  Our highly capable staff uses state-of-the-art tools and can respond rapidly to changes in the marketplace.

Because of our flexibility, we are capable of doing specialty work as well, not just memory.

 

The circuit board design from Engineering is recreated on a panel, as you see here.  There are five circuit boards on this panel.

Stencil room Every memory subassembly requires its own unique stencil.  The stencil is used to place solder precisely on each circuit pad before the components are placed onto the board.

 

This machine places solder paste onto the pads of the circuit panel.  The panel is aligned precisely to the stencil by using the two microscopic cameras (the vertical, tube-like structures).   The alignment is checked on the monitor above.

Placing a chip onto a circuit board A highly automated production facility places components on the boards.  Extreme precision is required; components are placed at accuracies of a thousanth of an inch.

 

The panel then goes through the oven.  This melts the solder paste, and solders the components to the board.   A precise temperature profile is required to assure quality solder connections.
