It’s not too hard to make your electronics project get warm. Design your traces too small, accidentally short the battery inputs together, maybe reverse the voltage going to your MCU. We’ve all cooked ...

Most people’s relationship with technology is distant or obscured. The average consumer does not have direct control over their tech — it is usually closed off to them, a little box given to them that ...

Engineers can take advantage of faster routing, improved workflow tools, and enhanced import/export capabilities, making it a ...

Over on Hackaday.io our hackers [Angelo] and [Oscarv] are making a replica of the PDP-1. That is interesting in and of itself but the particularly remarkable feature of this project is its novel use ...

Traditionally, tube power amps were all point-to-point (PTP) wired or of stripboard construction. Components were wired to a long tag board, which was then mounted under a metal chassis. From the tag ...

Effective printed-circuit-board cleaning requires special fluids, tools, and methods. Here are some of the most common to use and to avoid. How to effectively clean and dry printed circuit boards at ...

Advanced Linear Devices (ALD) announces the immediate availability of a universal PCB designed to automatically balance leakage currents and manage overvoltage, enabling ultra low-power usage in ...
