How Distance Learners are Using Upverter to Learn Electrical Engineering Online Upverter Education brings distance learners together to learn electrical engineering online. Looking back on my own experiences as a student, I am amazed at the depth of subject matter in most electrical engineering courses. Today’s generation of engineering students is facing major challenges in accessing truly comprehensive courses on electronics design, especially now that so many schools are operating remotely. Distance learning in a hands-on Read Article

PCB Land Pattern Design to the IPC-7351 Standard

PCB Land Pattern Design to the IPC-7351 Standard Your components won’t attach to your PCB without land patterns, and it’s up to the designer to create compliant land patterns for components. One common question from new designers is: what should the pad dimensions be? Technically, the only constraints on a PCB land pattern are those imposed by fabricator DFM requirements. However, many designers opt for land patterns designed according to the IPC-7351 standard. This important standard provides Read Article

PFC Circuit Design and Layout for Power Systems

PFC Circuit Design and Layout for Power Systems Much as we would like, the power input into a PCB is not always a clean DC or sinusoidal signal. DC coming from a rectifier will have some ripple from the output capacitor, and AC signals can contain noise or be less-than-perfect sine waves. There are some ways to correct these problems, either by choosing the right filtration circuit or by shaping the input wave to produce maximum power output to a load in the system. If you’re working with an Read Article
