The Great Search: SMT pick-and-placeable nuts TheGreatSearch adafruit DigiKey @Digikey
from Adafruit Industries · host Adafruit Industries
This week, we're designing a 1.8" round TFT PCB with a capacitive touch display. It's got a nice overhanging lip, which means we can mount it flush to a front panel. That means we don't want to have mounting holes on the front. Instead, let's use SMT nuts that pick up and place on and give a strong mounting spot while allowing the TFT to sit flat. DigiKey has many variations; let's check them out!
