Hi Technos,
I have a dilemma on my hands. An assembly that has about 15 passives (caps
and resistors), a connector and a fuse holder. The connector must be TH and
probably so does the fuse holder. The designers came with the question: "for
lower manufacturing costs should we design the board 100% TH, or make the
passives SMT and keep the other 2 parts TH". Interesting...
And here come my questions:
* what are the technical criteria that you use when trying to solve
this kind of riddle?
* what are the economical criteria?
* what parameters could I use for a breakeven analysis?
Thank you,
Ioan
