From what we’ve seen we’d say [Jianyi Liu] is really good at etching PCBs at home. Now you can learn from his experience. He just published a mammoth guide to fabricating your own PCBs at home. That ...

Avoiding via failures caused by barrel plating separation. PCB manufacturers face challenges in the precise registration of multiple layers, which is required to ensure reliable interconnects, and in ...

A look at variables that influence board price. How does one calculate the actual cost of fabricating a printed circuit board? Naturally, each PCB is different from another, and the cost of creating ...

Everyone has their favorite process for PCB fabrication, as long as you’re a happy hacker I don’t think it really matters. But in this post I thought it might be interesting to describe my personal ...

Choosing a circuit material for a high-frequency printed-circuit board (PCB) is generally a tradeoff, often between price and performance. But PCB materials are also selected by two key factors: how ...
