Types of PCB Assembly: SMT vs. THT vs. Mixed Technology

Types of PCB Assembly: SMT vs. THT vs. Mixed Technology

Printed Circuit Board (PCB) assembly is the process of soldering electronic components onto a PCB to create a functional electronic device. There are three main types of PCB assembly methods: Surface Mount Technology (SMT), Through-Hole Technology (THT), and Mixed Technology. Each method has its own advantages and is suited for specific applications. 1. Surface Mount…

The Impact of BGA Rework on PCB Integrity

The Impact of BGA Rework on PCB Integrity

Ball Grid Array (BGA) rework is a critical process in electronics manufacturing, particularly for repairing or replacing defective BGAs on printed circuit boards (PCBs). However, while BGA rework can extend the life of a PCB and restore its functionality, the process can also have significant effects on the overall integrity of the board. Understanding these…
