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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
