Article #7 of Innovations in Electric and Autonomous Vehicles Series: As electric vehicles (EVs) gain traction, challenges surrounding noise cancellation are dramatically changing, and the desire to reduce the weight of EVs is driving engineers toward active noise-cancellation solutions.
Article #5 of Innovations in Electric and Autonomous Vehicles Series: EV batteries and chargers evolve, and as traditional auto sales dropped, EV sales continued to rise over the past years. What will this mean for investors and consumers? Where is the tech taking us and what stands in the way?
Article #3 of Innovations in Electric and Autonomous Vehicles Series: 3GPP intends to use 5G in vehicle-to-everything (V2X) applications with significant advantages over current dedicated short-range communication or other cellular-V2X proposals.

PCB Panelization is a PCB manufacturing technique. It involves the grouping of several small printed circuit boards to form a single array, which is known as a panel. Panelization is commonly employed in PCB manufacturing because it saves time and cost. This article discusses the conditions, design considerations, methods, types, and benefits of PCB panelization.
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.
In this article, we will go over everything you need to know about PCB stencils.
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.
Their technique could allow chip manufacturers to produce next-generation transistors based on materials other than silicon.
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.
Sang-Hoon Bae, international collaborators create new materials for next-generation electronics
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.
