Surface Mount Device Identification

Surface mount technology or smt is the name of the method used for producing an smd.

Surface mount device identification.

Select system information in the list of results. A case tantalum bottom and side 2. This search engine designed to help identify the part from this code. If you are unsure of a character enter.

Surface mount technology smt is a method in which the electrical components are mounted directly onto the surface of a printed circuit board pcb. The surface mount resistor code systems provide are mainly used to enable service repair and fault finding. D case tantalum capacitor top and side 3. To identify a particular smd device first identify the package style and note the id code printed on the device.

Instead a somewhat arbitrary coding system has grown up where the device package carries a simple two or three character id code. On an ios device or android device. The serial number is listed there. Unfortunately each device code is not necessarily unique.

Now look up the code in the alphanumeric listing which forms the main part of this book by clicking on the first character shown in the left menu. Electrolytic capacitor side view 4. An electrical component mounted in this manner is referred to as a surface mount device smd in industry this approach has largely replaced the through hole technology construction method of fitting components in large part because smt allows. During manufacture the resistors are held either in tapes that are reeled or in hoppers used for the surface mount machines.

To look up a coded device click on the first character of the device code in the table on the left. Modern surface mount electronic components are often too small to write the part number on so a 2 3 or 4 digit code is often used. Identification pictures for surface mount devices smd all images and text are copyright vk3em luke enriquez c 2000. Smd devices are by their very nature too small to carry conventional semiconductor type numbers.

You ll find the serial number there. Under devices select surface headphones then select device details. Open the surface audio app select settings next to surface headphones then select about. Find system model under the item column.

Electrolytic capacitor bottom view 5. The model info for your surface will appear in the value column next to system model. The surface mount device code book r p blackwell gm4pmk.
