Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and related electromagnetic interference (EMI) are two culprits system design engineers have historically kept a sharp eye on, among their myriad of other ...

Antennas are sensitive to their surroundings. Thus, when there’s an antenna on the PCB, the layout for the design should take the requirements of the antenna into account, as this can make a huge ...

Harsh-environments and high-reliability engineering go hand-in-hand. Yet for aerospace, failure can mean hundreds of lives or millions of dollars lost. Read this whitepaper for critical PCB material ...

When it comes to things that hackers build, PCBs are a sizeable portion of our creative output. It’s no wonder – PCB design is a powerful way to participate in the hardware world, making your ideas ...

While at the Embedded Systems Conference in Minnesota I attended a session entitled “Introduction to RF for Embedded Designers” presented by Kyle Sporre, RF hardware manager, and Dustin Morris, ...

Out of curiosity, I redrew the Supercon Vectorscope badge schematics in KiCad last year. As you might suspect, going from PCB to schematic is opposite to the normal design flow of KiCad and most other ...
