Abstract :
Applying surface mount technology (SMT) to oceanic devices opens the door for future oceanic technology. The difficulty of designing with and maintaining SMT instruments forces many designers to pursue more favorable choices, but a collection of techniques and tools allows designers to develop SMT designs from the start. This paper should serve as a guideline for a device development process that extends the capabilities of instrumentation through the use of these SMT devices.
