To get all of the components onto a PCB that actually fits into the original case, though, surface-mount is required. For that [Tobi] is using a small USB-powered hotplate to reflow the solder, a ...

[Allan Schwartz] decided to document his experience using Fritzing to design, fabricate, and test a custom Arduino shield PCB, and his step-by-step documentation makes the workflow very clear. Anyo… ...

HARWIN Sycamore Contact series of surface mount pcb sockets covers pin sizes from 0.80 to 1.90mm and allow odd-form devices/modules that are not suited to regularly-spaced socket strip arrangements to ...

“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 research group in Canada has optimized the performance of concentrator photovoltaics by using the so-called surface-mount technology for thermal management. The CPV module prototype utilizes ...

What you’ll learn: The different types of PCB assembly methods like surface mount, through-hole, and mixed assembly. How these PCB assembly processes differ from each other.
