Higher power density, smaller form factors and long-life reliability expectations all collide, requiring better thermal ...

We wonder if [Carl Bugeja] was looking at a 3D printer’s heated bed when he got the idea to create a PCB reflow heater using a PCB. He tried a quick test to heat up a standard PCB and made it ...

So you’ve finished your project. You’ve got a wonderful circuit, a beautiful PCB, and everything works perfectly. You’re done right? Well, maybe not. Sure, a bare PCB might be fine for a dev board, ...

Engineers' traditional rational for printed circuit boards (PCBs) was to save cost over hand-soldered wiring. The earliest PCBs were made from paper saturated with phenolic resin. This is now known as ...

If you have high-powered LEDs, or a power supply, or are trying to control larger motors, you have to get a lot of heat out of your circuit boards. The classic way to dissipate heat is to bolt your ...
