SMT is a surface mount technology that is the process of placing electronic components on a PCB. How much do you know about the electronic components on the PCB? Let's take a look!


SMC: Surface Mounted commponents


There are mainly rectangular chip components, cylindrical chip components, composite chip components, and shaped chip components.


SMD: Surface Mounted Devices


There are mainly chip transistors and integrated circuits, and integrated circuits include SOP, SOJ, PLCC, LCCC, QFP, BGA, CSP, FC, MCM, and so on. Examples are as follows:


1. Interconnect: Provides mechanical and electrical connection/disconnection, consists of connecting plugs and sockets, connecting cables, brackets, chassis or other PCBs to the PCB; however, the actual connection to the board must be through surface mounting Type contact.


2, active electronic components (Active): In analog or digital circuits, you can control the voltage and current to generate gain or switching, that is, respond to the application of signals, you can change your basic characteristics. Inactive: Provides a simple, repeatable response when the electrical signal is applied without changing its characteristics.


3. Odd-form: The geometry factor is peculiar, but it does not have to be unique. Therefore, it must be mounted by hand, and the shape of the outer casing (compared to its basic function) is not standard.
