As electronic components and products continue to shrink in size, circuit miniaturization techniques keep pace. Stud bumps provide a contact system with the conductive properties of solder that is ...

If it looks like a 3D printer and acts like a 3D printer, then it should be a 3D printer, if one were to follow the old adage about ducks. But that doesn't hold true for a new invention by a robotics ...

We’re interested in any device that can make a PCB out of a copper-clad board, and this entry for the Hackaday Prize might be the simplest machine for PCB fabrication yet. It’s called the Projecta, ...

A little piece of technology essential to modern life can now be produced by virtually anyone who wants it in north Queensland. Vayeron said the pick-and-place machine was Australia's first to be made ...

If the folks at ECM PCB Stator Technology have their say, applications for printed circuit board (PCB) stator motors will replace the bulky copper windings associated with electric motors. The ...

Printed-circuit boards (PC boards or PCBs) are literally the foundation of many of our electronic products. These copper-clad boards – often but not always using glass-epoxy FR-4 substrate, but ...

New recyclable electronics could be critical to curbing e-waste, scientists argue, especially because these circuit boards can be repaired or reconfigured by simply applying heat. When you purchase ...
