About This Site

SMTCalc started as a personal toolbox, a way to have reliable, standards-based calculators available without hunting through spreadsheets. The tools are built around the same IPC references used daily on the production floor. No vendor relationships, no agenda, just tools that do what they say.

All calculations run entirely in your browser. No data is sent anywhere, no account is required, and everything is free to use.
