The most complete introduction about COB led strip lights, you must read before buying led strips. Before looking for these answers, please take 30 seconds to look at the whole COB light strips and have a basic impression of it.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t There are more than a dozen features listed in this article, some of which may be known to you, and some may not be known to you. I ever used to DIY COB led strips on some objects in the home and office. It was really great. I recorded them before and after installation and made short videos. You can refer them on Shirley channel on youtube.<\/a>Click here to review installation effect videos?<\/p> This article is about 3,000 words and it takes 10 minutes to read.

SMD is the abbreviation of Surface Mounted Devices, which means: Surface Mounted Devices, which is one of the SMT (Surface Mount Technology) components. Surface mount devices have become the current mainstream electronic assembly technology due to their small size, light weight and high power.<\/p> Surface mount device packaging is to attach electronic components directly to the substrate, that is, to package and place the chip components on the printed circuit board, and use a reflow furnace to melt the solder alloy interconnected by the electronic system, thereby realizing the interconnection between the chip components and the substrate.

The volume and weight of SMD components are only about 1\/10 of those of traditional plug-in components. Generally, after SMT is used, the volume of electronic products is reduced by 40%~60%, and the weight is reduced by 60%~ 80%.<\/p> High reliability and strong anti-vibration ability. Solder joint defect rate is low.<\/p> Good high frequency characteristics. Electromagnetic and radio frequency interference is reduced.<\/p> Easy to automate and improve production efficiency. Reduce costs by 30% to 50%. Save material, energy, equipment, manpower, time, etc.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t LED is short for Light Emitting Diode.

The COB light strip is a light strip that encapsulates the chip on a flexible board. Chips mostly use flip-chips, which are linearly solid-bonded on the PCB, and then a layer of packaging glue mixed with phosphor is directly dropped on the surface of the chip. The light emitted by the chip is refracted, reflected, and interacted with the phosphor inside the encapsulating gel. The gel uniformly emits light of different colors and color temperatures.
it is a new type of process technology, based on the SMD led strips with further evolution. In order to facilitate your understanding, I drew a side sectional view.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\tWhat is SMD?<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
