Yuan,

Most of the components I have used are indeed readily available in SM form, often in more than one SM package style.

Subject:        [TN] Cost comparisons TH vs SMT

Are anyone aware of any cost comparisons between through-hole components
such as DIPs VS their SMT versions?

Are the SMT versions for many through-hole parts off-shelf and readily
available?

Any information are appreciated.

Thanks,

Yuan
