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 ...

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

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) represents the next great step forward in PCB design. This is, of course, what you might expect me to say. 2023 has been a year dominated by the rise of ...

Why today’s high-speed, high-frequency designs have very little “wiggle room” within them relative to laminate properties. Why the end-product’s application and performance determine the most critical ...

The Ball Grid Array, or BGA package is no longer the exclusive preserve of large, complex chips on computer motherboards: today even simple microcontrollers are available with those little solder ...

Boston-based ECM PCB Stator Tech is demonstrating the company’s PrintStator Motor CAD design-to-manufacture tool at CES 2024 (taking place Jan. 9-12, 2024 in Las Vegas). The event will mark the ...

Printed circuit board motors replace wire windings with copper traces and report about 7% higher efficiency, helping cut ...

Use of surface-mount technology (SMT) in consumer products offers a major competitive advantage—they enable significant design miniaturization. Surface-mount devices (SMD) come in a variety of ...

It’s been a while, but I still visit the fundamentals of PCB design and troubleshooting. It is very effortless to generate unwanted signals that suddenly dance across the board. This acquired noise ...

Today’s PCB design review is a board is from [Wificable]. iI’s a novel dual-SSD laptop adapter board! See, CPUs and chipsets often let you split wide PCIe links into multiple smaller width links. This ...
