Integrated circuits have the advantages of small size, light weight, fewer lead wires and welding points, long life, high reliability, and good performance. At the same time, they have low cost and are convenient for mass production. It is not only widely used in industrial and civil electronic equipment such as tape recorders, televisions, computers, etc., but also widely used in military, communications, remote control and other aspects. Using integrated circuits to assemble electronic equipment, its assembly density can be increased by tens of times to thousands of times than transistors, and the stable working time of the equipment can also be greatly improved.
The difference between PCB board and integrated circuit
Integrated circuit generally refers to the integration of chips, such as the north bridge chip on the motherboard and the inside of the CPU are all called integrated circuits, and the original name is also called integrated block. The printed circuit refers to the circuit board that we usually see, and the printed solder chip on the circuit board.
The integrated circuit (IC) is soldered on the PCB board; the PCB version is the carrier of the integrated circuit (IC). PCB board is printed circuit board (Printed circuit board,PCB). Printed circuit boards are found in almost every electronic device. If there are electronic parts in a certain device, the printed circuit boards are mounted on PCBs of different sizes. In addition to fixing various small parts, the main function of the printed circuit board is to electrically connect the upper parts to each other.
Simply speaking, integrated circuit is to integrate a general circuit into a chip. It is a whole. Once it is damaged inside, the chip will be damaged. PCB can solder components by itself, and if it is broken, it can be replaced.
