For the next post in the Creating A PCB series, we’re going to continue our explorations of Eagle. In Part 1, I went over how to create a part from scratch in Eagle. In Part 2, we used this part to ...

A few years ago, I wrote a few columns titled Making A Thing. These columns were a tutorial of sorts for several different 3D modeling programs. This column wasn’t meant to be a complete guide to ...

A printed circuit board (PCB) mechanically supports and electrically connects electronic components using conductive tracks, pads and other features etched from copper sheets laminated onto a ...

As the world is becoming increasingly virtual and software is replacing hardware, electrical and electronics engineers are trying to ride the same bandwagon with their tool of choice, PCB (Printed ...

You have just completed the layout of your latest space-electronics’ project, simulated and verified the physical implementations of your circuits, and are now ready to email the stack details as well ...

In this project, I'll make a small circuit capable of controlling a servo, it is a servo tester made out of a 555 timer IC. In the process of making this circuit, we'll make a pcb design for it. This ...

Back in 2010, Bob Pease sent me a couple pictures of some prototype printed circuit boards (PCBs) he had made in the early 1960s. Pease got to be a great analog engineer because he would hack away at ...
