Modern electronics manufacturers often face contradictory requirements when integrating complex circuits into a finished application. The product needs to be light in weight, yet durable enough to survive in environments where heat, vibration and moving parts would...
As companies move forward with their plans to contribute to the burgeoning field of health care-related wearables and medical devices, it is imperative to to take into account the unique design requirements inherent to these gadgets.
“The greatest achievement of humanity is not its works of art, science, or technology, but the recognition of its own dysfunction.”–Eckhart Tolle. Wondering why such a quote to start the article? Well, that’s because the topic of PCB stiffeners we will discuss is not...
Flex PCB design requires a slightly different approach than rigid PCBs. While flex PCBs can provide major savings in manufacturing cost as well as reduced space consumption and lower weight compared with rigid, their design must be optimized for their materials and...
Several big trends have converged to make the Internet of Things possible, including advances in PCB design.
Tips on ensuring maximum dependability in your flex PCBs.
This flex case study was originally published in PCD&F and Circuits Assembly. It was written by Dr. Dave Cowl who recalled developing a wearable high-speed board with severe timing constraints. The US Air Force engaged HoloEye Systems to create a prototype...
We are witnessing intensified race among various space agencies for supremacy over the skies for the past few years. As per reports by the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA), more than 4,500 artificial satellites are orbiting the earth with an...
By closely following the design guidelines and meeting all requirements for detailed drawings, companies can avoid revisions and delays, and fully benefit from quickturn PCB fabrication.
