SOT23 and SOT363 devices directly to a board alongside 0603 and 0805 devices. Connect everything with a few beads of solder and you have a functional circuit made out of surface mount devices on ...

But there is no substitute for practice. Find a scrap board populated with reasonably-sized surface-mount components, and have a go at reworking it. Desoldering its components may be a bit ...

Surface-mount packages aren’t available yet for some components. But the large size of the through-hole components consumes more space on the PCB and hence increases the board size. SMT PCBs are ...

Moment makes a few different models of adhesive-mounted AirTag cases to consider for this purpose: the Curved Surface Mount for AirTags, a flexible silicon case (left in photo above); and the Hard ...
