Satellite and spacecraft avionics are increasingly combining K-band RF, high pin-count, ultra deep-submicron GHz-speed digital, GSPS analogue, and low-voltage, high-current power distribution onto a ...

A correct printed circuit board (PCB) layout is one of the most important aspects to having a successful power supply design. Non-isolated power stages are the basic building blocks of power systems.

If you’ve been spending hours with the digital calipers while designing enclosures for your circuit boards there may be a better way. [Phil] tipped us off about a new software package that will let ...

For the most part, vendors want to stick with their own file formats and translate data between them. Altium's software can export PCB data to the mainstream STEP format as well as generating its own ...

Our 1ED44173/5/6 are the new low side gate driver ICs that integrate over-current protection (OCP), FAULT status output and enable function. This high integration level is excellent for the digitally ...

It is a good day for design review! Today’s board is the MuBook, a Lattepanda Mu SoM (System-on-Module) carrier from [LtBrain], optimized for a NAS with 4 SATA and 2 NVMe ports. It is cheap to ...

Printed-circuit-board (PCB) substrate material, like FR-4 glass epoxy, is a poor conductor of heat. Conversely, copper is an excellent conductor of heat. So, more copper area on a PCB is ideal from a ...

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 ...

Cambridge GaN Devices (CGD), the fabless, clean-tech semiconductor company, has introduced a range of Application Interface Boards that will allow designers to try out the company’s ICeGaN HEMTs in ...

Now, this latest leak links the PCB design to the RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Max-Q Workstation Edition, which is expected to feature 96 GB of memory. A notable part of the leak is the "blower-style" ...
