As an electronic engineer, we often run into a situation: you have a new idea and designed the circuit schematic, but feel overwhelmed if prototype, purchase components and assembly by yourself. Considering everyone’s needs, here we recommend ...

What is SMT Stencil? SMT Stencil is also known as Solder Paste Stencil, is to transfer solder paste to a bare circuit board. A stainless steel foil is laser cut creating an opening for every surface mount device on the board. Once the stencil is ...

Established in 2006, JLCPCB Factory is the earliest prototype and small-batch PCB production factory in China. Now, JLCPCB has four PCB manufacturing sites. Come with us on a tour of the PCB fabrication process for a 2 layer board to find out how a ...

Jay Davis EDN All too often, we electrical engineers are under the gun to get a circuit working now, and don’t have the luxury of ordering parts and waiting even a day. The problem: loose parts in the tool box can be nearly impossible to read ...

Inexpensive PCB prtotype service ($2 for 10 PCBs prototype) JLCPCB is a very cheap PCB prototype manufacturer for 10 PCBs 10 × 10 cm double-sided PCBs with a cost of only $2 excluding shipping charges. You can check your own quotes by ...

Martin Rowe EDN Wires and cables can be a nightmare. We all have too many of them, whether they're computer cables, AC mains power cords, USB cables, extension cords, and so on. Keeping them organized is always a problem. Keeping clip leads ...

Daisy Designing PCBs and PCB fabrication are getting a lot easier these days. The possibility of manufacturing 5-10 pcs circuit boards at dirt cheap price has given millions of hobbyists an opportunity to work on their ideas freely. However, for a ...

Graham Prophet eeDesignNewsEurope Redux (London UK) has followed earlier announcements of its surface-wave-based haptics technology with a version specifically targeted at the smartphone, with which it aspires to “kill off smartphone ...

Paul Rako EDN 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 power transistor to an aluminum heat ...

PCB prototype is one of the most requested services in the electronics industry. It is important to prototype these circuit boards to perform various tests before going through with a full PCB production run. We know many PCB prototype suppliers ...
