Through-Hole Assembly
What is Through-Hole Assembly?
Through-hole mounting technique refers to the mounting scheme used for electronic components that involve the use of leads on components that are inserted into holes drilled in Printed Circuit Boards (PCB) and soldered to pads on the opposite side by manual assembly (hand placement). Through-hole mounting provides strong mechanical bonds compared to SMT, but the additional drilling required makes the PCB's more expensive to produce as well as requiring manual assembly labour.
When to use Through-Hole mounting?
Through-hole mounting techniques are now usually reserved for bulkier or heavier components such as electrolytic capacitors or components in larger packages that require the additional mounting strength.
