When a PCB fails, the user often attempts to source a replacement, only to find that it is obsolete or expensive. In either instance, IER are on hand to provide a reliable and cost effective repair service. We have an extensive range of components available from stock or our specialist suppliers, both in the UK and internationally.
IER successfully repair thousands of PCBs every year, using the very latest component testing technology. Our equipment allows us to test analogue and digital components both in and out of circuit, then faulty components are replaced and burnt out tracks repaired as necessary. We also have the ability to reprogram many ICs. Software verification and backup is carried out whenever possible.
The type of PCBs repair we offer includes:
These are often carried out without the availability of fault information and/or circuit board diagrams. To complement our repair service, IER are also able to remanufacture low-quantity, obsolete, printed circuit boards to a high standard.
Printed circuit boards electrically connect and support a variety of electronic components. They are constructed from fibreglass, utilising copper traces in place of traditional wires. The copper traces connect these components, forming a circuit. They are found in a range of modern technologies, including computers, televisions and radios. The thinness of the PCB also allows it to be incorporated into many modern, slim-line devices, such as the laptop.
