A circuit board packaging technique in which the leads (pins) on discrete components and chips are inserted through holes in the printed circuit board and soldered from beneath. Until the late 1980s ...

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)?

Renco Electronics has announced the release of its latest Thru-Hole AC Line Filter, the RL-9750 Series. Characterized by a new, innovative design with 2,500 Hi-pot, the RL-9750 Series aims to raise ...

Here’s a PCB fabrication process that makes us envious. It’s pretty darn close to fab-house quality at home. [Cpirius] is using a CNC mill and through hole plating technique to produce his ...

Mill-Max announced an addition to its diverse mix of press-fit pins for plated through-holes with six new offerings designed for applications where mechanical strength and/or power delivery are ...

Resistors are an odd bunch. Why would you have 1.0 Ω resistors, then a 1.1 Ω resistor, but there’s no resistors in between 4.7 Ω and 5.6 Ω? This is a question that has been asked for decades, but the ...

Schurter has introduced a through-hole fuse holder specifically designed to be compatible with reflow soldering. Schurter has introduced a through-hole fuse holder specifically designed to be ...
