Integrated circuits (ICs)
Depending on the type, ICs fulfil various tasks. The most
common housing form is the so-called "DIL"-housing, from
which 4, 6, 8, 14, 16, 18 or more "legs" (pins) are
arranged along the long sides.
ICs are sensitive to damage during soldering (heat,
electrostatic charging). For that reason in the place of the
ICs IC sockets are soldered in, in which the ICs are
inserted later.
Microcontrollers
Microcontrollers are ICs, which are individually programmed for the
particular application. The programmed controllers are only available
from the manufacturer of the circuit belonging to it.
Terminal strips
Terminal strips are solder-in screw-type terminals. They provide a
solder-free and safe connection of the cables to the circuit, which can
still be separated any time.
