Let’s face it friends, everything is moving toward surface mount components. We’ve seen quite a few features here that cover using stencils to populate boards and using ovens to reflow. [Oleg] has put ...

Schurter has introduced a series of through-hole PCB-mount common-mode chokes for use at between 10A and 50A and up to 300Vac or 450Vdc. For single-phase applications, DKIV-1 chokes are available with ...

A switch supports PCB design with performance, assembly, and operation, helping engineers fit configuration functions into ...

GCT’s new edge mount USB Type-C Plug, the USB4155, has been developed to provide design engineers with greater options for docking solutions and plug-in external dongle devices. The USB4155 is ...

The TDD Series surface mount jumper DIP switches from C&K components are sealed with a removable top tape to enable them to be used in reflow soldering and washable assembly processes. The switches ...

Piher Sensors & Controls has introduced the MTS-360 Mechanical Mount Rotary Position Sensor with integral PCB for fast and easy mounting. Designed with the sensor directly mounted onto a PCB, the ...

As computers have gotten smaller and less expensive over the years, so have their components. While many of us got our start in the age of through-hole PCBs, this size reduction has led to more and ...

Should folks building small numbers of circuit boards use surface-mount parts, or should they stick with through-hole components that are so much easier to handle and solder (not to mention see)?

Peak current is up to 3 times the primary nominal current reaching 450 A pk with the 150 ARMS An over-current detection output with a threshold set at 1.93 x IPN is also offered as an option on an ...
