Importance of User Experience in an Electronics Product

Think about the last time you used a gadget that just ‘clicked’ with you. The buttons were right where you needed them, the interface was clean and understandable. That’s no accident. Behind every successful electronic product is a carefully...

Optimizing Costs for an Electronics Product Launch

Launching an electronic product comes with its own set of challenges, with cost optimization being a crucial one. This is particularly true when it comes to components like printed circuit boards.The key is to tackle this issue head-on, right from the design stage. By...

Traceability In Printed Circuit Assemblies and Its Importance

Traceability has a crucial role in the life cycle of printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturing. Each PCB carries essential data: its origin, batch, and production date. This information forms the PCB’s identity. In demanding production environments, these...

Can High Temperature Damage a PCB?

With PCBs in items all around us, it’s good to know the temperature ranges they can endure. Can a high temperature cause damage to a PCB? What is the highest temperature it can withstand? Some engineers filled us in on what can happen to PCBs at high temperatures....

13 Ways to Reuse PCBs: Getting Value Out of Older Circuit Boards

You know the drill: Design a circuit board, use it in a device, and then it’s onto the next one. The old board gets shelved. But there’s untapped potential in these silent shelves of circuitry. Every unused PCB assembly is a chance to save money and reduce...
