Printed Circuit Board Assembly The assembly of printed circuit boards is a multiple step process that includes surface mount technology (SMT) and through hole technology. In through hole (THT) assembly processes, the component leads are placed onto the board and the leads are soldered via a wave soldering process. Surface-mount technology (SMT) is a method for producing electronic circuits in which the components are mounted or placed directly onto the surface of printed circuit boards (PCBs). An electronic device so made is called a surface-mount device (SMD).
