Considerations for dividing analog and digital blocks. Decoupling techniques. Breaking down the board layers. How best to deal with grounding. Similar to building a house, it’s essential to create a ...

Despite increasing levels of semiconductor integration and readily available systems-on-chips for many applications, in addition to the increasing availability of highly-featured development boards, ...

Fundamental to careful system design of any DC/DC power converter is a well-planned and carefully executed printed circuit board (PCB) layout. An optimized layout leads to better performance, lower ...

The Ball Grid Array, or BGA package is no longer the exclusive preserve of large, complex chips on computer motherboards: today even simple microcontrollers are available with those little solder ...

In today’s electronics industry, compact, efficient, and versatile PCBs are in high demand. Rigid-flex technology allows engineers to design boards that bend and flex without compromising performance ...
