How should I handle wet PCBs?

A batch of PCB got wet in warehouse due to roof linking. Too terrible to shoulder the lost. How can I do to rescue these wet PCBs? Or to minimize the damage?

The best solution is to dry it by wind and then sunshine.
Clean PCBs with high-purity alcohol if available. High-purity alcohol can dilute water and promote ventilation.
Test them before using in case of any residual water.

Anyway, the stability of the PCB is impossible to recover as before, but they can work. Ten slotte, they have been damped. If they pass a wet test before selling, things will be better.

How can I mount a pulse oximeter on the surface of PCB without putting too much stress?

The PCB has a pulse oximeter mounted on the surface, and it’s tolerance is 0.6mm. The problem is the pulse oximeter needs to touch the bottom case at all times. How to best mount the PCB in the case without putting too much stress on the pulse oximeter? Will screws with flexible washers be all right? Sadly separating pulse oximeter from main PCB is not an option.

Does anyone have any experience using zero-ohm resistors in an RF signal path to select antennas?

I’ve typically used RF switches for this purpose, but that’s also when it was necessary to allow the antenna selection to be changed “in the field”. But for cases where the antenna selection is a manufacture-time option, I’m considering simple zero-ohm resistors.

Hoe kan ik PCBA-massaproduct verpakken voor transport over lange afstanden??

Ik heb een partij PCBA gekocht via FOB in het buitenland, wat betekent dat de goederen volledig van mij zijn sinds ze aan boord zijn. So how can I pack them to avoid any possible damage on the way?
