? This area is locked! ?In today's Technology Thursday, Saar Drimer talks about the benefits of using "keepouts" in PCB design. Keepouts let the PCB designer mark areas where no parts or traces are allowed. These rules are important for making sure the electronics can be built properly and work reliably.For example, they're useful for keeping areas like plug connectors or switches...
Würth Elektronik introduces its WR-BTB family of connectors, now made of guaranteed halogen-free plastic.
VUB Racing has achieved a groundbreaking feat this year with the construction of their new car, named Eos, exclusively made from flax fibers as the sole composite material. ?This achievement marks a world first in the Formula Student competition, setting a new standard for sustainability and innovation. ?In the blog below they tell us more about their latest voltage indicator PCB...
TECHNOLOGIE THURSDAY ?Why PCB thickness varies !!In fact, a 1.55 mm thick PCB is somewhere between 1.4 and 1.7 mm thick; 10% tolerance is allowed in the industry.Of course, every PCB designer and the PCB manufacturer know the thickness of the starting materials. Nevertheless, the thickness of the finished PCB cannot be predicted with certainty.In this technology blog Saar Drimer explains in...
Meet Hyperloop UPV. Throughout this years edition of the European Hyperloop Week competition they have placed a strong emphasis on improving the reliability of their electronics.We helped them by providing high-quality PCBs which have been instrumental in equipping their vehicle with the necessary components for achieving levitation and traction.Check out their project in the blog below! ?https://www.eurocircuits.com/blog/hyperloop-upv/#eurocircuits #electronics #PCB #pcbdesign #pcbassembly #pcbmanufacturing #Hyperloop
Würth Elektronik presents new additions to the WE-AGDT series, with interwinding capacitance lower than 1 picofarad, more topologies and higher output voltage options
TECHNOLOGY THURSDAY ?FR-4: The low-cost base material for PCBs!No base material is used as much as FR-4 for PCBs. Its characteristic properties are exactly what is needed for a circuit carrier: leakage current resistant or insulating, mechanically stable and capable of withstanding bending, heat resistant up to 100° C and economical.But, FR-4 is far from a simple, straightforward base material.Our...
Meet UniBo Motorsport - Formula SAE Team University of Bologna! This student team has more than 250 students dedicated to the construction of three different prototypes: an electric motorcycle, an electric car, and a combustion car. ? ?Keep up the good work guys! ?Check out their project in the blog below! ?https://www.eurocircuits.com/blog/unibo-motorsport/#eurocircuits #electronics #PCB #pcbdesign #pcbassembly #pcbmanufacturing #supportstudents #formulastudent
Würth Elektronik has expanded its collection of practical information to support electronics developers with the new AppNote ANO007 “Understanding Phototransistor Optocouplers” (www.we-online.com/ANO007)
TECHNOLOGY THURSDAY! ?How many soldering operations are involved in PCB assembly?In a previous issue of Technology Thursday we looked at the intricacies of the widely used base material FR-4.A key point was that FR-4 is a diverse family of laminates and that there are significant differences in the material parameters of the various FR-4 types.Selecting the appropriate type becomes a...
