This is the third and final installment of a series of posts on how to create a PCB in KiCad, and part of an overarching series where I make the same schematic and board in dozens of different ...

A few years ago, I wrote a few columns titled Making A Thing. These columns were a tutorial of sorts for several different 3D modeling programs. This column wasn’t meant to be a complete guide to ...

In today’s electronics industry, compact, efficient, and versatile PCBs are in high demand. Rigid-flex technology allows engineers to design boards that bend and flex without compromising performance ...

Three independent design processes – chip, package, and PCB – are typically required for the latest electronic products which utilize increasingly complex systems on chip (SoCs) and multiple chips in ...

Creating models is a valuable step in the design process, especially before you start manufacturing. Physical models, using materials like cardboard, paper, foam, or even 3D printing, allow you to ...

Is your PCB design team spending too much time waiting for IR-drop analysis results on the power delivery network (PDN), or trying to optimize the decoupling capacitor network without under- or ...
