Thin film switches are a common electronic component widely used in various electronic products. Due to its fragile structure, some precautions need to be taken during storage to ensure its performance and service life. This article will introduce the precautions to be taken when storing thin film switches.
Thin film switches are a common electronic component widely used in various electronic products. Due to its fragile structure, some precautions need to be taken during storage to ensure its performance and service life. This article will introduce the precautions to be taken when storing thin film switches.
Storage environment
Thin film switches should be stored in a dry, ventilated, and dust-free environment to avoid environmental factors such as humidity, high temperature, direct sunlight, and harmful gases from affecting them.
temperature
The storage temperature of the thin film switch should be controlled between -20 ℃~+60 ℃ to avoid material thermal expansion and contraction caused by supercooling or overheating, which may affect its performance.
humidity
The storage humidity of thin film switches should be controlled between 5% and 80% to avoid excessive humidity causing material moisture, corrosion, or aging. At the same time, it is also necessary to avoid low humidity causing material dehydration, shrinkage, or cracking.
Other precautions
(1) The connecting wires of the membrane switch should be protected and not placed downwards to prevent dust from entering the connecting wires and affecting their performance.
(2) Products with windows should be protected from material bending under force, otherwise it may leave creases, affecting the appearance and service life.
(3) Thin film switches should be stored indoors at room temperature and undergo dust-proof and moisture-proof treatment. There should be no acidic, alkaline, or other corrosive gases in the surrounding air.
(4) The front and back of a product are usually covered with transparent film to protect the surface or display window from scratches, and the protective film should be retained.
(5) The foam cotton in the product package is separated from each other by foam cotton to reduce the damage to keys caused by external unconscious forces.
(6) After removing a few of them from the original packaging, they should be tied up as they are, but they must not be too tightly tied.
(7) Products with tactile sensations (metal shrapnel, hot pressed protrusions) need to be packed vertically to prevent prolonged heavy pressing of buttons from causing tactile failure.
Conclusion: The storage precautions for thin film switches include controlling the storage environment, temperature and humidity, as well as protecting the front and back of the product and connecting wires. If the above precautions are followed for storage, the service life and performance stability of the thin film switch can be effectively extended
