Many readers are certainly familiar with the process for home-etching of PCBs: it’s considered very straightforward, if a little involved, today. This was not the case in my youth, when I first ...

Part 1 of this series described how digital signals propagate through PC boards [Refs. 1, 2, 5, 6]. In part 2, we look at specific board designs to achieve low EMI. The biggest issue I see in my ...

Building electronics in unconventional form factors with high packaging density is possible thanks to three-dimensional circuit designs using flex and rigid-flex printed circuit boards (PCBs).
