The Most Common Applications of Plate-Through Hole (PTH), Coating & Box Builds

Understanding the significance of Plate-Through Hole (PTH) technology, along with coating and box builds, is crucial for mastering the intricacies of modern electronics and PCBA manufacturing. These elements are essential for producing high-quality, reliable products.

What is Plate-Through Hole Technology?

Plate-Through Hole (PTH) technology involves mounting electronic components by inserting their leads into drilled holes on the PCB, ensuring robust mechanical support and reliable electrical connections. Coating refers to the application of protective layers, such as conformal coatings, to electronic assemblies, safeguarding them against moisture, chemicals, and other contaminants. Box builds encompass the comprehensive assembly of electronic systems, including PCB assembly, components, wiring, and more, all housed within enclosures or chassis.
