Developed collaboratively, the new certifications enable PCB designers to validate computer-aided design (CAD) skills, demonstrate proficiency with Altium Designer®, and advance their careers in a ...

KiCAD EDA is a free, open-source, and cross-platform electronic design automation suite. This software contains three different modules including Schematic Editor, PCB Layout, and 3D Viewer. Schematic ...

Electronic products must be reliable and durable, especially when they are designed to operate in harsh environments. Building printed circuit boards (PCBs) to work efficiently in extreme ...

When electronics engineers design PCBs, they must follow best practices for trace routing. This helps maintain PCB signal integrity and reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI). Crosstalk can occur ...

High-frequency PCB properties. Key steps in high-frequency PCB design. Applications of high-frequency PCBs. High-frequency printed circuit boards (PCBs) have emerged as the lifeline for electronics ...

A new systems design toolset aims to create a unified user experience for board designers while adding cloud connectivity and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities, which will enable engineers to ...

Built for engineers and hobbyists who want to move quickly from idea to fabrication, offering intuitive design tools, ...

A key discussion earlier this year at the Hot Chips conference was using AI for semiconductor chip development. Some felt that AI should be integrated into the electronic design automation (EDA) tools ...

PCB design is not a simple exercise in which one size fits all. High-data-rate, high-frequency designs provide very little “wiggle” room in terms of performance constraints. If you have a failed ...

Cadence Design Systems and Synopsys dominate the semiconductor electronic design automation software market. CDNS's growth is closely tied to overall chip design activities, which are expected to ...

A printed circuit board turns separate parts into a stable system that powers up, talks to peripherals, and survives real world stress. The printed circuit board distributes power, guides signals with ...

Additive manufacturing has been around electronics since thick-film, screened hybrids came on the scene more than 30 years ago. And while those never quite went away, they never gained the prominence ...
