Operating behind the scenes of your ECAD software and PCB layout editor is an important dataset that defines the connections between components. This dataset, typically stored in a single file, is known as a netlist. Different CAD systems have different netlist formats, but they play an important function in PCB design software: defining connectivity between components. Netlists Start in the Schematic All netlists are defined at the circuit...

Implementation of a patch antenna in a PCB requires connection to another component or external module. This connection is very often placed as a microstrip line, possibly with a quarter wavelength matching line, such as in patch antenna arrays for advanced wireless systems. There is another method involving an SMA or other coax connector, but not on the same layer as the antenna. Coaxial-fed patch antennas involve the use of a patch antenna on...

One of their best-known products is the nRF52, an RF-capable SoC with an integrated transceiver. This component is small, offers a high I/O count, and has a part number that comes in a fine-pitch BGA package. In this article, I’ll show a PCB...
