PCB: Basics of Design Series | Electronic Design

This series is part of the TechXchange:  PCB Tools and Technology and it is in the EDA and and PCB Technology section of the Electronic Design Library.   

Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are the backbone of the electronics industry. New technologies and approaches have allowed some electronic solutions to be built without a fixed or flexible PCB of some sort, but the PCB remains an integral part of most electronic products. Though a copper-clad insulated board might seem like a simple idea, PCBs these days are a far cry from the single-sided PCBs that started the trend. Designers need to consider RF issues, multilayer issues, surface-mount technology (SMT), and much more. PCB

PCB: Basics of Design Series | Electronic Design

PCB technology is something that Electronic Design follows, and this series is a collection of some of the best articles on the subject. Our PCB Tools and Technology TechXchange contains articles our editors have selected that may wind up in these eBooks, and our Printed Circuit Board channel presents the latest articles. 

You can send press releases for new products for possible coverage on the website. I am also interested in receiving contributed articles for publishing on our website. Use our template and send to me along with a signed release form. 

Check out my blog, AltEmbedded on Electronic Design, as well as his latest articles on this site that are listed below.

I earned a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology and a Masters in Computer Science from Rutgers University. I still do a bit of programming using everything from C and C++ to Rust and Ada/SPARK. I do a bit of PHP programming for Drupal websites. I have posted a few Drupal modules.

Smd Pcb I still get a hand on software and electronic hardware. Some of this can be found on our Kit Close-Up video series. You can also see me on many of our TechXchange Talk videos. I am interested in a range of projects from robotics to artificial intelligence.
