Printed circuit board assembly, also called PCBA, is the process of soldering or assembling electronic parts to a printed circuit board (PCB).
Surface Mount Technology, or SMT, is a printed circuit board assembly process for SMD electronic components. SMD components do not have leads or legs. They are mounted on the surface of the circuit board.
It is also called "thru-hole." It is the mounting scheme used for electronic components that involves the use of leads on the components that are inserted through holes drilled in printed circuit boards.
A rectangular or square array of solder balls placed on one surface.
An electronic device made for mounting or placing electronic components directly onto the surface of printed circuit boards (PCBs).
Package on Package (PoP) is an integrated circuit packaging method that allows for higher component density in devices, such as mobile devices. It involves stacking two or more packages vertically via a standard interface to route signals between them.
Common inquiries often cover minimum order quantities, response times, and specific services related to manufacturing.
PCBA (Printed Circuit Board Assembly): Involves assembling individual components onto a printed circuit board (PCB) to create a functional unit.
