| Board Mount | Through hole technology (THT) mounts components on a printed circuit board (PCB) by inserting component leads through holes in the board and then soldering the leads in place on the opposite side of the board. Surface mount technology (SMT) adds components to a printed circuit board (PCB) by soldering component leads or terminals to the top surface of the board. SMT components have a flat surface that is soldered to a flat pad on the face of the PCB. Typically, the PCB pad is coated with a paste-like formulation of solder and flux. With careful placement, SMT components on solder paste remain in position until elevated temperatures, usually from an infrared oven, melt the paste and solder the component leads to the PCB pads. | ||

| Standards / Compliances | |||
| Your choices are... | |||
| REACH | Registration, Evaluation and Authorization of Chemicals (REACH) is a European Union standard for supply chain information exchange. The REACH standard provides a supplier portal to facilitate communication with suppliers. If a product is submitted via the trader portal, the supplier portal sends an e-mail to the relevant exporter requesting that they register and give details of the substances contained in the product. If more complex products are involved, exporters can also include their own sub-suppliers in the automatic substance query. | ||
| RoHS Compliant | Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) is a European Union (EU) directive that requires all manufacturers of electronic and electrical equipment sold in Europe to demonstrate that their products contain only minimal levels of the following hazardous substances: lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyl, and polybrominated diphenyl ether. | ||
| WEEE Compliant | Waste Electrical and Electronics Equipment Regulations (WEEE Regulations) is a European Union Directive that is designed to encourage the reuse, recycling, and recovery of electrical and electronic equipment, and to improve the environmental impact and performance of this equipment. WEEE also establishes the requirement and criteria for the collection, treatment, recycling and recovery of this equipment. It makes producers responsible for financing these activities, and retailers and distributors must provide a means for consumers to return used or obsolete equipment without charge. | ||
