Interfaces
Module interface Surface mount device with solderable connection pads (SMT application
interface). Land grid array (LGA) technology ensures high solder joint reli-
ability and provides the possibility to use an optional module mounting
socket.
For more information on how to integrate SMT modules see also [3]. This
application note comprises chapters on module mounting and application
layout issues as well as on SMT application development equipment.
