What is Electronics Manufacturing?
Electronics manufacturing refers to the process of designing, assembling, testing, and producing electronic devices and systems used in consumer, industrial, medical, automotive, and aerospace sectors. It includes the fabrication of printed circuit boards (PCBs), component placement, soldering, and final product assembly.

Key Segments:
Printed Circuit Board Assembly (PCBA): Core process involving SMT (Surface Mount Technology) and THT (Through-Hole Technology).

Component Manufacturing: Production of semiconductors, resistors, capacitors, and other components.

Final Product Assembly: Integration of PCBs into final consumer or industrial products.

Testing & Quality Assurance: Functional, in-circuit, and environmental testing of finished electronics.

Manufacturing Models:
Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM): Companies that design and sell their own branded products (e.g., Apple, Samsung).

Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS): Contract manufacturers that provide design, assembly, and testing services to OEMs (e.g., Foxconn, Jabil).
