Surface Mount Switch Market: Higher Costs and Relative Unsuitability for Mechanical Stresses to Hinder Market Growth
Miniaturization has become a hot in the electronics industry and this is boosting the demand for surface mount equipment. The smaller size of surface mount switches as compared to their through-hole counterparts increases their density over a printed circuit board (PCBs), thereby enhancing mechanical performance under shake and vibration conditions. During initial stages, the cost of installation of surface mount switches is also low as compared to the cost of installing through-hole switches.
