A quick electric pulse completely flips the material’s electronic properties, opening a route to ultrafast, brain-inspired, superconducting electronics.
Lead-free solders offer an environment-friendly alternative to toxic lead-based solders, which were dominant in the PCB manufacturing industry till the mid-2000s.
Controlled impedance in printed circuit boards involves the regulation of resistance exerted by signal traces. It is determined by characteristic factors of PCB fabrication, such as trace width and copper thickness. This article discusses controlled impedance and the essentials of its execution in PCB manufacturing.
This article aims to provide a comparative analysis of HASL vs ENIG, providing valuable insights to aid in making informed decisions for PCB design and manufacturing.
The hybrid “eBiobots” are the first to combine soft materials, living muscle and microelectronics, said researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, Northwestern University and collaborating institutions. They described their centimeter-scale biological machines in the journal Science Robotics.
Engineers face persistent challenges with PCBA designs as they become more complex, posing a risk to the development process as a whole. Those who neglect design complexity may fall behind development schedules, incur expenses, and miss market deadlines.
Study shows that if autonomous vehicles are widely adopted, hardware efficiency will need to advance rapidly to keep computing-related emissions in check.
Approximately 7% of the world's gold can be found inside discarded electronic devices, in form of PCB Gold Fingers. While a tonne of Gold Ore produces just 5 grams of pure gold on average, a tonne of electronic scrap can house 300 grams of gold inside it. Here we gloss over the significance of gold fingers in the present day electronics industry and all kinds of gold fingers specifications you need to know.
