It’s not too hard to make your electronics project get warm. Design your traces too small, accidentally short the battery inputs together, maybe reverse the voltage going to your MCU. We’ve all cooked ...
Printed circuit board motors replace wire windings with copper traces and report about 7% higher efficiency, helping cut ...
If this new millennium has something iconic to represent it, it has to be the overwhelming amount of electronics present in our lives. Computers, smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, and other electronics ...
Using a toaster oven to reflow PCBs isn’t anything new, but just using a toaster oven has some limitations. Making toast isn’t as complex as reflowing PCBs. [Nabil] decided to modify an oven to get ...
BGA soldering is very reliable if done using the correct procedure, so we introduce GA Soldering on PCB board, BGA Inspection and BGA Rework. According to different packaging materials, BGA components ...
Printed circuit board (PCB) design is a complex endeavor, but it’s more manageable when you have access to the right tools. Numerous companies now offer PCB design tools that allow collaboration ...
Manufacturing challenges below 8mil. When drill to trace spacing falls below 8 mil, the PCB moves into a far more complex manufacturing zone. Standard mechanical drilling is often insufficient, and ...
Geopolitical tensions and pandemic-related disruptions have revealed deep vulnerabilities within the supply chain for manufacturers as well as the businesses and governments that rely on them. In ...
Traditionally, tube power amps were all point-to-point (PTP) wired or of stripboard construction. Components were wired to a long tag board, which was then mounted under a metal chassis. From the tag ...
