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 ...

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 ...

The proliferation of cell phones, pagers, and miniaturized personal-logic devices (PLDs) has added more pressure for faster throughput to an already overloaded electronics manufacturing industry.

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 ...

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb 13 (Reuters) - Circuit board design startup Quilter announced on Tuesday it raised $10 million, saying it would use artificial intelligence to reduce the time to design components ...

Over the past few years, as the ‘maker‘ movement has taken hold, we have seen some spectacular projects emerge from people’s garages — all thanks to the wonder of tools such as 3D printers. Now, after ...

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 ...

Arguably the greatest engineering challenge in quantum computing is addressing these systems’ predilection for errors. Now, a new study from scientists from Australia and Poland says that creating a ...
