For mounting electronic components, two technologies are typically used. These include through-hole technology and surface-mount technology. While both technologies achieve the desired outcome, their processes and advantages are unique. Through-Hole Technology For this   Read more »

Surface Mounting Technologies (SMT) have dramatically changed modern-day manufacturing. Although customers and manufacturers have already identified a number of benefits, it seems that additional benefits surface every year. For example, compared to the more conventional th   Read more »

Designing and manufacturing surface mount assemblies requires a unique technology. Known as Surface Mount Technology, or SMT, this method is what engineers use to produce electronic circuits found in components placed or mounted directly onto the surface of printed circuit b   Read more »

Printed circuit boards, also referred to as PCBs, are a self-contained module comprised of interconnected electronic components. Formed by a very thin layer of conducting material that is printed onto the surface of an insulating board or substrate, these boards are commonly   Read more »

Printed circuit boards began as electrical connection systems, first developed during the 1850s. Initially, rods or strips made of metal connected large electric components on wooden bases. Eventually, wires connected to screw terminals replaced the metal strips, and metal c   Read more »
