We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Surface mounting",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Resistance turns to heating elements from
BI Technologies Electronic Components Division, which we summarised at the time by saying "Can be individually tailored to suit a wide range of niche applications across market sectors including high-end industrial, civil aerospace and
automotive".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Circulator targets WiMAX basestations from
TDK Electronics Europe: "SMD circulator is compatible with WiMAX (2.5 and 3.5 GHz) and wideband (200 MHz) frequencies".
In September 2007, we covered the news from Morgan Electro Ceramics
concerning its Type 106
- take a look at RF devices increase capacitance density
which says: "RF multilayer ceramic capacitor offers high performance for a variety of high RF voltage and high RF current applications".
Take a look also at the news release from Digi-Key Corporation, Wireless developments cut time to market,
as well as Current transducers go straight onboard from LEM UK,
and Switch catalogue covers broad range of styles from Abacus Group.
