SMD Databook, Electronic Devices for Makers and Designers

Addressing the Makers, the Designers, as the Technicians engaged in laboratory operations and field maintenance SMD Databook stands as a working tool to complement other sources of information available online - published by different manufacturers, therefore not homogeneous - encouraging the rapid identification of the functional conditions of the components and their peculiarities.
The surface-mount components have definitively conquered a large application space no longer limited to the consumer electronics sector, where they find full reason for being, but also in the small series and in the amateur sector. However, there is a dichotomy that still qualifies the traditional devices and the SMDs in two separate worlds, it is the marking on the package that the producers place to identify each element. For example, a banal 2N2222A transistor in the form of a macro TO92, with the terminals for through hole, will report exactly this code in its entirety or in the worst case "2222A" and therefore finding in front of a circuit that uses it will result immediately recognize it. But the same transistor in the SMD form on an micro SOT323 package will have a code that certainly does not directly recall its identity. The reason for this is understandable, small SMDs have less space for complete wordings and consequently a short alphanumeric code is adopted as often completely detached from the actual nomenclature associated with the component. This problem is dealt with each time you have a commercial board in your hands or otherwise made by others and you want to intervene in order to make changes, replace a device, understand the function of a circuit, and so on. For this reason we have included in the Databook a list of Marking Codes that has the intent to make life easier for all those who are faced with standard SMD industrial semiconductor devices.
