Surface Mount Technology (SMT) is a modern PCB manufacturing method that allows components to be mounted directly onto the board’s surface, offering advantages such as increased component density, improved performance, automation, and cost-efficiency, while presenting challenges like precise component placement and handling difficulties.
The “layers” in PCB design refer to the actual physical copper layers of a circuit board, with modern designs often including multiple layers for routing and power distribution, while concepts like vias, silk screen, SMD components, and fill areas must be carefully managed to ensure a functional and manufacturable design.

The physical interface between electronic components and the PCB is defined by PCB encapsulation, providing crucial information for assembly and maintenance such as component shape, pad number and location, reference pins, and polarity. Each component must have its own package, including the copper area for soldering. Various types of PCB packages exist, with common examples being SOP, QFP, and BGA. Key factors in PCB packaging include pad size, spacing, shape, through-hole placement, reference marks, clearance and creepage distance, and alignment width. International standards such as IPC 7351, ANSI Y32.2-1975, and ISO 10303-21 guide the design of PCB packages, schematic symbols, and 3D models respectively.
