In our last installment of Tools of the Trade, we had just finished doing the inspection of the surface mount part of the PCB. Next in the process is the through hole components. Depending on the ...

The different types of PCB assembly methods like surface mount, through-hole, and mixed assembly. How these PCB assembly processes differ from each other. The performance of a printed circuit ...

and moving the through hole components to the rear PCB side, pogo pins could be soldered to strategic locations. Building the assembly into a rudimentary enclosure made from sawn-up raw copper ...

The U.S. military ramped up the production of PCBs using auto assembly methods. Double-sided circuits were designed with through-hole plating and copper-coated vias transmitted electrical signals ...

Through-hole reflow (THR) is a recently developed method of attaching components to printed-circuit boards built with solder-reflow processing. In fact, THR and surface-mount devices (SMD ...
