Controlled impedance is the control of PCB trace impedance within specified tolerances. This article covers microstrip and stripline designs, IPC-2141A formulas, stackup selection, impedance tolerances, routing practices, and TDR testing for signal integrity.
Exploring the shift to additive digital printing in modern electronics fabrication.
A PCB design can be electrically correct, pass every design rule check and perform exactly as expected on an engineer's screen - and still cause significant problems when it reaches manufacturing.
A semiconductor is a material whose electrical conductivity falls between that of a conductor and an insulator and can be controlled by temperature, light, and impurities. This article covers semiconductor materials, doping, diodes, transistors, and integrated circuits.
