Guide To Attracting Engineering Talent To Your Hardware Startup Learn how to find the best engineering talent and PCB designers for your hardware startup. Read Article Build Your Own Laser Range Finder Raspberry Pi Pico (RP2040) is a cute piece of hardware. It is equipped with a powerful dual-core RP2040 microcontroller that offers 2M (up to 16M) Flash and 264K SRAM memories. Such specifications for an MCU make it suitable for a variety of hobby and industrial applications. In this article, I used an RP2040 Zero board, a VL53L0X Laser time-of-flight ranging sensor, and a 2.4” TFT display to build a graphical laser rangefinder unit that can be Read Article Do You Know How to Prevent Voltage Fluctuation? One of the most common types of power supply issues is output voltage fluctuation. This problem is caused by various factors, including input voltage variations, unpredicted changes in the load current, feedback control loop malfunctions, switching frequency issues, component tolerances, temperature variations, and aging components. This article will briefly explore the causes of output voltage fluctuation and provide insights on how to solve and Read Article Amplified Benefits: Flexible Circuits with Ultra-HDI conductors Sometimes 2 + 2 does NOT equal 4, sometimes the combination of two technologies can amplify the benefits of both to something far greater. Today’s blog is going to shine a light on the combination of using both flexible materials and ultra-HDI feature sizes, specifically, trace and space that is less than 50 microns and in fact is now being produced in the United States with 20-micron trace and space using traditional printed circuit board Read Article How to Hire the Right PCB Designer for Your Project in 2023 Learn what you should look for when you hire your first design engineer for your company.
