Without PCB layout, not much would get done. It is a ubiquitous need across industries; Industrial, consumer, military…Everywhere you look, there are chips soldered to PCBs to create a final product ...

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 ...

The best news when you power up a prototype supply board for the very first time is when it not only works, but also runs quiet and cool. Unfortunately, this does not always happen. A common problem ...

When current flows through a conductor it becomes an inductor, when there is an inductor there is an electromagnetic field (EM). This can cause a variety of issues during PCB layout if you don’t plan ...

This repository contains a python based Printed Circuit Board (PCB) layout and design package based on CuFlow by James Bowman. This implementation is an experimental variation of CuFlow. It attempts ...

Abstract: To reduce the occurrence of iteration in PCB design and ensure the smooth progress of project schedule with sufficient design time, a PCB pre layout determination method based on multiple ...

Semiconductor manufacturers have developed innovative production techniques that enable the integration of multiple components and a dc-dc converter IC die into a single module. Producing such a dc-dc ...

Moore’s law, applied to data rates, has pushed PCB circuits so fast that the layout becomes part of the circuit. In designs such as DDR3 and PCIe, the fastest memory and high-speed serial performance ...
