Having a three-dimensional or 3D view of your PCB design is not a current or modern practice. In fact, it started long back with the emergence of PCB design tools. However, the requirement and ...

Without PCB layout, not much would get done. It is a ubiquitous need across industries; Industrial, consumer, military…Everywhere you look, there are chips soldered to PCBs to create a final product ...

When current flows through a conductor it becomes an inductor, when there is an inductor there is an electromagnetic field (EM). This can cause a variety of issues during PCB layout if you don’t plan ...

PCB layout design for switching power supply IC is as important as the circuit design. Appropriate layout can avoid various problems caused by power supply circuit. Major problems that arise from ...

Antenna performance isn't just about the antenna itself. The PCB beneath it is determining range, efficiency, & wireless ...

Moore’s law, applied to data rates, has pushed PCB circuits so fast that the layout becomes part of the circuit. In designs such as DDR3 and PCIe, the fastest memory and high-speed serial performance ...

With the significant reduction in package parasitics provided by the eGaN FET, the package inductance is minimized and is no longer the major parasitic loss contributor. The high frequency loop ...

We see a lot of projects using Eagle for the schematics and PCB layout. There are a few that use Kicad, but we hear very little about other alternatives. Recently, [Limpkin] has been working with ...

6. SOT-23 and SOIC packages are typically used in low-power motor drivers. Standard leaded packages, like SOIC and SOT-23 packages, are often used for low-power motor drivers (Fig. 6). To maximize the ...
