We’ve always been fascinated by things that perform complex electronic functions merely by virtue of their shapes. Waveguides come to mind, but so do active elements like filters made from nothing but ...

PEACHTREE CITY, GA – JULY 6, 2026 – The Printed Circuit Engineering Association (PCEA) today announced that AJ Cooper, CEO and cofounder of Itera, will keynote PCB West 2026. His keynote, “The ...

Share your thoughts about PCB design. What type of PCBs do you design most often? What typically influences your decisions?

This is the continuation of a series where I create a PCB in every software suite imaginable. Last week, I took a look at KiCad, made the schematic representation for a component, and made a schematic ...

In today’s electronics industry, compact, efficient, and versatile PCBs are in high demand. Rigid-flex technology allows engineers to design boards that bend and flex without compromising performance ...

Stackups can range from the simplest four-layer PCB to complex stackups requiring sequential lamination. Let's take the humble four-layer PCB. PCB designers not familiar with fabrication may be ...

One of the most common issues I see with schematic and PCB layout is crossed wires. For example, the designer has connected the USART peripherals transmit line to the transmit line of the receiving ...

Advanced Linear Devices (ALD) announces the immediate availability of a universal PCB designed to automatically balance leakage currents and manage overvoltage, enabling ultra low-power usage in ...

Rigid-Flex PCBs have been used in many modern electronic devices (such as mobile phones, laptops, and wearables, among others), due to their form factor, light weight, and cost-effectiveness.

Printed circuit board (PCB) was introduced as a replacement for bulky wiring circuits almost a century ago. Today, it’s the core of the electronics industry, supporting the latest designs like IoT, AI ...
