You can do your own Surface Mount Technology based PCB assembly with just a handful of tools and some patience. At the heart of my SMT process is stopping to inspect the various steps all while ...

The different types of PCB assembly methods like surface mount, through-hole, and mixed assembly. How these PCB assembly processes differ from each other. The performance of a printed circuit ...

Littelfuse, Inc. announced the launch of the KSC PF Series sealed tactile switches for surface-mount technology (SMT). These ...

“The solder pad spacing along the length is the same as the Pico surface-mount footprint, however you have to allow for the Pico PCB width [21mm] plus 3.64mm.” Gold-plated conductive parts in the ...

A reflow profile with a high ramp-up rate or a too-rapid temperature increase can lead to solder splattering and formation of ...

a technique that is commonly used to mount electronic components to the surface of a printed circuit board (PCB). The proposed SMT design used no wire bonding for cell emitter connection and is ...

JEDEC has adopted a pair of top-side-cooled surface-mount packages created by Infineon for high-voltage ... All of the packages have cut-aways which allow visual inspection of the pad-to-PCB solder ...

“Our latest crystals and oscillators provide a competitive alternative to industry-standard surface-mount devices,” said Mike Husman, senior vice president of Vishay’s Inductor Division.
