What Is a Touchscreen Smartphone PCB?
A touchscreen smartphone PCB is the main logic board that controls all core functions of a mobile device. It includes integrated circuits, CPUs, memory chips, connectors, and micro-components soldered onto layered fiberglass boards. When smartphones are beyond repair, these PCBs still retain significant scrap value.
Recycling these boards helps reduce landfill waste, recover precious metals, and support sustainable electronics management in the UK.

- Metal concentration (gold-plated contacts, IC density)
