Study Notes
- Surface-mount technology (SMT) is a method of mounting electronic components directly onto the surface of a printed circuit board (PCB), resulting in increased manufacturing automation and reduced costs.
- SMT components are referred to as surface mount devices (SMD), and production lines using this technology are commonly called SMT or SMD lines.
- SMT has largely replaced Through-Hole Technology (THT), which involves mounting components through holes in the PCB, due to increased automation and cost savings.
- Both SMT and THT can be used on the same board, with THT often used for larger components not suitable for surface mount.
- Moisture Sensitive Levels (MSL) is a standard related to the handling and packaging of semiconductors, to prevent damage from moisture expansion during the SMT reflow process.
- IPC-M-109 is a standard created by the IPC (Association Connecting Electronics Industries) for handling moisture sensitive components.
- Production lines can be categorized by the mix (complexity) and volume of units produced, including High Mix Low Volume (HMLV), High Mix High Volume (HMHV), Low Mix High Volume (LMHV), Low Mix Low Volume (LMLV), High Mix Medium Volume (HMMV), and Medium Mix Medium Volume (MMMV).
- EMS (Electronic Manufacturing Services) and OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers) are different types of companies in the electronics industry, with EMS providing manufacturing services for other companies and OEMs designing and producing their own equipment.
- Other acronyms in the text include ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems), and supermarket, buffer, kamban, FIFO (First In, First Out), FEFO (First Expired, First Out), splicing, splitting, Slave, and master.
