PCB etching returns to Elektor’s Circuit Special tradition as a 1980 variable power supply project is rebuilt from magazine artwork.

Most of us learned to design circuits with schematics. But if you get to a certain level of complexity, schematics are a pain. Modern designers — especially for digital circuits — prefer to use some ...

One of the big problems with doing PCB layout is finding a suitable footprint for the components you want to use. Most tools have some library although — of course — some are better than others. You ...

Do you need a free PCB design software or tool to put in practice the new electronic project you’ve just designed? So, we present you 10 of the best PCB software tools available on the internet that ...

Every PCB designer has experienced it. A design progresses through schematic capture and layout only to reveal problems during verification, simulation, design review, or manufacturing preparation. A ...
