Making Smart Wearable Devices Smarter Making wearable smart devices smarter, is one of the heavily invested research in the tech industry today. Henry Crendall talks more about it in this episode. Read Article How to Optimize Your PCB Prototype for Production It’s often the case that PCB prototypes look nothing like a final product. If you’re transitioning from PCB prototype to volume production, learn more about optimizing your design. Read Article USB to Serial-Over-RJ45 Module Serial interfaces are still used to control networking equipment with Ethernet. Here’s how these devices work through an RJ45 port on your PCB. Read Article Solder Formula for High Quality and Reliability PCB Listen or watch through the end. This is a great opportunity for PCB designers to learn about soldering products that are used for printed circuit board assembly. Read Article Protecting Your PCB Design From Machine Assembly Defects These days, most PCBs are not hand assembled, save for specialty components or in order to eliminate a reflow pass. When you get a board assembled on an automated line instead of manual labor, you expect your PCBA to be free of defects. In reality, no PCB assembly process is ever perfect, even with top-of-the-line equipment, and a small percentage of your boards might occasionally face quality issues. However, being aware of issues can help you Read Article Does Anyone Still Use DIP Components? DIP components are less-often used in professional PCB design projects for new products, but legacy products may still need these parts.

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.
