The new Circuit Board skins are printed using Dbrand’s new “three-dimensional UV printer” that can print two-dimensional imagery but with certain elements having a slightly raised texture.
Through-hole assembly means bending leads on components and putting the leads through holes in the circuit board, then soldering them in place, and trimming the wires. That took up too much space ...
For instance, some mobile phones have circuit boards with embedded double layer capacitors to store energy, a design that's advantageous over traditional decoupling capacitors.
It's true – the Mac LC III really did have it installed the wrong way round Did Apple really fit a capacitor backward on the Mac LC III? A multimeter-wielding retro fan has confirmed that, yes – ...
They’re in almost everything: Smartphones, computers, stereo equipment, microwave ovens, pretty much anything with a circuit board.
Scientists have developed a circuit board material that releases its electronic components when exposed to hot water, so they can be salvaged for re-use.
To accelerate its mission to "automate electronics design," Celus today announced it has raised €25 million ($25.6 million) in a Series A round of funding.
Beyond bothering large language models (LLMs) with funny questions, there’s the general idea that they can act as supporting tools. Theoretically they should be able to assist with parsing an… ...
The formal name of the chip. An integrated circuit (IC) combines thousands, millions or billions of transistors on a single substrate. A certain number of resistors and capacitors may also reside ...
Some surface-mount capacitors exhibit acoustic noise when operated at frequencies in the audio range. A recent design uses 10-μF, 35V X5R 1206 ceramic capacitors that produce noticeable acoustic noise ...
Dbrand’s new glow-in-the-dark skins have a circuit board texture you can feel The company is using a three-dimensional UV printer to make the designs look and feel more like an actual circuit board.
