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 ...

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 boards provide an infrastructure to support and connect electronic components, and are used in almost every electronic device I recently visited Amphenol APH Printed Circuits in Nashua ...

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 ...

Most people’s relationship with technology is distant or obscured. The average consumer does not have direct control over their tech — it is usually closed off to them, a little box given to them that ...

Effective printed-circuit-board cleaning requires special fluids, tools, and methods. Here are some of the most common to use and to avoid. How to effectively clean and dry printed circuit boards at ...

What if the future of electric motors didn’t rely on bulky copper windings or heavy steel components? Ziroth outlines how Printed Circuit Board (PCB) motors are flipping the script on traditional ...

Taking another step toward reducing its carbon footprint and promoting sustainability, Infineon Technologies AG has announced that it is using Soluboard, a recyclable and biodegradable printed circuit ...

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 ...

German semiconductor maker Infineon Technologies AG announced that it's producing a printed circuit board (PCB) that dissolves in water. Sourced from UK startup Jiva Materials, the plant-based ...
