Hello readers welcome to new post. Here we will discuss Advantages of SMT Technique. With the advancement in the construction of electronic devices and projects there is need of such technology that fulfill all needs for reduction of devices circuits and make them compact. SMT has offered the methods through which new innovation has been introduced in the PCB industry and different components and devices are creating with use of this technique effectively.
SMT is methods through which different components are placed on the boards and make project circuits with less cost and high quality way. Here we will cover all details related to the advantages of SMT technique in industry and how it has revolutionized the PCB industry and you will learn how JLCPCB is offering high-quality SMT services to their users and customers and they are working with high-quality machines in this technique.
History of SMT
SMT first time called planer mounting and was used by IMB in the 1960s, they uses this technique for the creation of small-level computes.
After that it was employed for use in space technology after that became very common for us in different engineering tools and projects.
SMT makes electronic circuits where elements are positioned on the PCB board.
The resultant products are created through use of SMT technique called SMD. With the use of this technique there has been through hole technology has be replaced with it.
Numerous elements are employed in SMT called SMD and small size has less weight since has small size pin out.
Components of SMT
There are 3 main types of components are used in SMT technology that are described here.
Passive components: Its common examples are resistances and capacitors that comes with windings and are used for such devices that needed quantity of energy.
Seconds are small size components that are transistors and diodes. Transistors come with three pinouts and the diode has two pins.
The third one is ICS which comes with 8 to 14 pinouts and some come with larger numbers of pinouts generally two hundred pins. With the use of SMT the size of boards has been reduced to decrease the cost for the creation of board.
Advantages of SMT Technique
There are different advantages offered by the SMT technique that are described here with the detail.
Small Size Board
Through use of SMT components are connect on the board with less distance resulting creates a small size board with a compact design.
In result, projects can be created in lightweight and simple design. This helps engineers to make the board with more than one design configuration in a simple way.
With the less weight devices creation helps to make them use practically in larger way than others and easy to transport from one place to another.
Dense Components creation
SMT permits us to place more elements on the boards and helps to arrange more components on the board.
It also helps to make extra connections for other components added on the board.
It also helps to connect the components on both sides of boards and reduce the cost for the creation of multilayer PCB boards.
Less Expensive
The components created through the use of SMT are less expensive than the through-hole technique used. With that manufacturers and SMT service providers also have an impact on the cost of SMT products.
JLCPCB offers SMT services at affordable prices and with high-quality products and machines are used at the platform of JLCPCB.
There is more than 350K components exist in the JLCPCB stock. There is no need to worry about the parts sourcing it helps save you time and also reduces your cost.
In addition, you can pre-order the parts and hold the inventory at JLCPCB, giving you peace of mind that you will not experience any part deficiency at the last minute.
For quality inspection they use Visual Inspection Solder Paste Inspection (SPI) X-ray Inspection Automated Optical Inspection
They only get parts from authorized distributors to ensure durability, quality and performance.
All boards are manufactured and assembled in the JLCPCB, ensuring consistency and quality with everything we build.
Multitasking Products
The resultant products created through use of SMT are versatile and can be used in different projects.
There is customized soldering process is used for SMT and elements can be connect through use of glue.
Stable Products
Stable products can be created through these techniques and has high reliability then others.
Easy to Manufacturer
Since there is no use of a hole like the through-hole technique so can be easily created. The high-speed creation of the creator helps to make the manufacturing process simple. So for getting high-quality manufacturing and in a good way, JLCPCB is most proffered. In another way they will help you create your board fastly with that reduce the chances of errors in boards.
In SMT there is use of solder reflow technique for the connection of different elements. The resultant products of SMT technique have been replaced the through-hole board designs. It also has given the industry low cost, less weight and compact products for practical use with that manufacturers like the JLCPCB has made the use of this module very easy and simple for every user.
