Surface-mount technology (SMT), originally called planar mounting, [1] is a method in which the electrical components are mounted directly onto the surface of a printed circuit board (PCB). [2] An electrical component mounted in this manner is referred to as a surface-mount device ( SMD ).
Sensors installed to a fixture to check selective solder machine parameters Selective soldering machine. Selective soldering is the process of selectively soldering components to printed circuit boards and molded modules that could be damaged by the heat of a reflow oven or wave soldering in a traditional surface-mount technology (SMT) or through-hole technology assembly processes.
LGA 1700 socket on a motherboard. The land grid array (LGA) is a type of surface-mount packaging for integrated circuits (ICs) that is notable for having the pins on the socket (when a socket is used) — as opposed to pins on the integrated circuit, known as a pin grid array (PGA). [1]
With recent changes in the economic climate the requirement for SMT placement becomes focused on the machine's versatility to deal with short runs and fast changeover. [citation needed] This means that lower cost machines with vision systems provide an affordable option for SMT users. There are more users of low end and mid-range machines than ...

Hermes is a machine-to-machine communication standard used in the SMT assembly industry. [1]IPC-HERMES-9852. It is a successor to the SMEMA standard, introducing improvements such as: simpler physical wiring (Ethernet), use of popular data transmission formats (TCP/IP and XML), reduced number of barcode scanners (required only once at the beginning of the line), transmission of board data ...
When potting a circuit board that uses surface-mount technology, low glass transition temperature (T g) potting compounds such as polyurethane or silicone may be used. High T g potting compounds may break solder bonds through solder fatigue by hardening at a higher temperature because the coating then shrinks as a rigid solid over a larger part ...
Dye-n-Pry, also called Dye And Pry, Dye and Pull, Dye Staining, or Dye Penetrant, is a destructive analysis technique used on surface mount technology (SMT) components to either perform failure analysis or inspect for solder joint integrity. It is an application of dye penetrant inspection.
