What advantage does surface-mount technology offer at RF compared to using through-hole components?
Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: D. All these choices are correct
Surface-mount technology gives smaller circuits, shorter traces, and parts with less parasitic inductance and capacitance. All these help at RF.
Tip: SMT wins at RF on every count.
