Hide and Seek: Key Serial-Number Chips for PIC Microcontroller Code Protection
One of my favorite games, when I was young, was hide and seek. I would play with my friends and it was always fun to try and find a good hiding place. As an older brother, I played the same game with my younger brothers, but with a twist. Instead of hiding myself, I had to hide my stuff from them. If I picked good hiding places, my stuff was safe. However, if I was lackadaisical and chose poor hiding places they were sure to find my toys or

Completing a Pre-Layout Design Checklist Can Keep Your PCB Design from Crashing
Many years ago I got my private pilot’s license, and there is nothing that I love better than being behind the controls of a small plane. When the plane leaps off the runway and into the sky, the feeling is exhilarating. Then, after executing a perfectly smooth landing, there is a sense of triumphant success. In addition to the pure joy of flying, there are also many ideas and lessons that I have taken from my time in the air. One of these has

Don't Let Lithography Issues Cast a Shadow on Your PCB Manufacturing
Projectors can often be the most annoying piece of technology to work with. You could have a movie night you want to host with an old school projector and some nice, buttery popcorn but be unable to find a spot where the image projected isn’t crooked; you could be trying to give a highly-influential presentation to your peers and bosses, only to encounter that the projector has squished all of your images and graphs; you could be trying to teach

Boats With The Current: Microstrip and Stripline Transmission Lines Trade-offs
In F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby, the narrator, Nick Carraway, is torn between infiltrating the notorious elite social circles by attending his neighbor Jay Gatsby’s infamous mansion parties in Long Island, New York and establishing himself on the east coast in a finance career. It can be easy to have an understanding of The Great Gatsby through its context - the roaring twenties, flappers, prohibition - it wouldn’t do justice to any of

Old School Wisdom: Best Schematic Software Simplifies Schematic to PCB Synchronizing
You’ve heard it said: “there’s no school like the old school.” Is that always true though? When I was a kid my “old school” taught me to type on a typewriter, not a word processor. If I was using that old school typewriter today, it would take me significantly longer to write this article. I wouldn’t have access to spell checking or any of the other helpful utilities that I’ve become accustomed to. I wouldn’t be able to easily backspace and re

No, I Don’t Want to Make a U-turn: Guidelines for PCB Trace Routing
Watching your old town grow up can be a lot like watching your favorite television shows ending, or watching a sequel years after a good movie was released. The town I grew up in was laid out on a grid with streets so wide you didn’t even have to parallel park downtown. It was a town so small that traffic jams were caused by two people in different cars stopping to talk more often than accidents. When I go back to visit, the town has grown; the

Your PCB Layout Checklist: What’s The Difference Between DRCs & MRCs?
When you're working your way through a complex PCB layout, there is a large number of important design features to keep track of. Will it be high speed? What about the vias and solder mask? Your PCB layout can be quite complex, and your layout will have to conform to multiple design guidelines to ensure it will function properly once manufactured. Your layout will have to go through multiple design rule checks (DRCs) to spot electrical errors and
