Abstract
Surface mount technology (SMT) has been widely adopted in recent years, brought on by the need to produce small, dense electronic packaging. This technology has many advantageous characteristics:
-
SMT allows for components to be mounted on both sides of the board.
-
Holes through the board are only needed for communication between the surface and the circuit planes; thus the size of the holes can be decreased.
-
Since less room is needed for holes, a 50 percent increase in line density from a similar through-hole board can be obtained.’
