Printed circuit boards can be square, round, octagonal, or whatever shape you desire. But there’s little choice when it comes to the third dimension: most PCBs are flat and rigid. Sure, you can make ...

In the competitive world of electronics manufacturing, a profound truth often goes unrecognized until expensive lessons force ...

As fascinating and challenging as the PCB design process can be, it is important to take all necessary precautions to ensure proper circuit operation, especially when dealing with high power PCBs. As ...

I enjoy seeing modules that can make designing other devices easier, and when I did a call for design reviews, [enp6s0] has submitted one such board to us. It’s a module called TinySparrow (GitHub), ...

PCB design guidelines are created as benchmarks for circuit design engineers to meet the industry standards. Following these guidelines will ensure better manufacturability and robust product ...

Why PCB workflows need different levels of EDA functionality. How to use the right amount of EDA for different PCB tasks. Which PCB scenarios require maximum vs minimum EDA. Designing a PCB is a ...

Today’s electronic devices market demands miniaturized printed circuit boards (PCBs) with a multitude of high-speed functions integrated on a single board. This causes the designers to have traces ...

Skills shortages in engineering have long been recognised and are impactful to many organisations in the manufacturing space.

PCB design is not a simple exercise in which one size fits all. High-data-rate, high-frequency designs provide very little “wiggle” room in terms of performance constraints. If you have a failed ...

Discover how this powerful open-source SPICE simulator helps you analyse and validate analog, digital and mixed-signal ...

If the folks at ECM PCB Stator Technology have their say, applications for printed circuit board (PCB) stator motors will replace the bulky copper windings associated with electric motors. The ...
