In designing and prototyping electronic circuit boards there is no quick or simple way to produce results. Many hours of design and development need to be expended on prototype layouts along with ...
I got a cute sample from Schmartboard. They make little circuit boards that have long strips on them so you can solder SOICs down and then wire up the chip with a combination of jumpers and ...
Developers and makers that enjoy building electronic circuits and boards may be interested in a new circuit board prototyping machine called the Voltera V-One. The Voltera V-One has been specifically ...
The always-great Jon Titus has a nice article in ECN magazine about circuit board mills. I mentioned these machines in my recent cover story about prototyping, but I did not go into the detail Jon ...
Back in 2010, Bob Pease sent me a couple pictures of some prototype printed circuit boards (PCBs) he had made in the early 1960s. Pease got to be a great analog engineer because he would hack away at ...
On Monday (February 10th), Waterloo, Canada-based Voltera launched a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter to raise $70,000 for its new self-titled protyping machine. Within only 35 minutes of its ...
In future iterations, BotFactory believes it can 3D-print multi-layered surface-mounted circuit boards, like what’s inside your cell phone. That’s not going to be possible with the first generation of ...
IIIF provides researchers rich metadata and media viewing options for comparison of works across cultural heritage collections. Visit the IIIF page to learn more. This Ethernet board is a prototype ...
Imagine being an engineer assigned to help develop a device — and you’re not even allowed to see what it is supposed to look like. Secrecy was so important to Apple on its first iPhone, the first ...
