There is a large growth market for flexible circuits, RFID antennas and biosensors on films. Researchers in Germany are presenting a new technology: they can now apply conductive metal circuits to ...

Veteran-led Kupros has figured out a way to dramatically speed up the prototyping process for 3D-printed electronics.

Printed circuit boards are used in all disciplines, including motion-control applications. New CAD software helps designers create better schematics and layouts. The days of “electro” and “mechanical” ...

Space savings, greater reliability, low mass, and high ductility are some of the advantages offered by flexible PCBs, but designers must also prepare for their complexity. Flexible printed circuit ...

Printed Circuit Board (PCB) Design is an asynchronous online hands-on project-based course that provides instructions on the entire design capture process, starting with the User Interface, Project ...

There is no question that there are many products on the market that use digital electronics in their design. A brief trip through your favorite computer or electronics equipment store should ...

These days, it is hard to imagine electronics without printed circuit boards. They are literally in everything. While making PCBs at home used to be a chore, these days, you design on a computer, ...

In my experience, the most difficult problems encountered involved electronic circuit boards that were sensitive to industrial EMP (Electro-Magnetic Pulse) radiated and conducted RF noise. Circuits ...

Tossed circuit boards are about 20% copper, a much larger fraction than the roughly half a percent in copper ore mined from the ground. That percentage, plus the growing mounds of global electronic ...
