A printed circuit board turns separate parts into a stable system that powers up, talks to peripherals, and survives real ...

Electronic devices that dissolve in water could make it easier to create and recycle technology prototypes – and they could ...

When the board is ready to recycle, they simply dissolve the board and glue in water. The electric components tend to separate easily from the liquid alloy, and both can be recovered and reused.

The evolution of PCB from a simple radio circuit with copper layers to the multi-layer flexible boards marks a tremendous advancement.

A new type of printed circuit board (PCB) could drastically reduce the amount of electronic waste that ends up in landfills. Although most PCBs are difficult to recycle, such is not the case with ...

A bare-board test is run after fabrication of the circuit board to make sure that all of the nets in the board have electrical connectivity.

Damaged circuit boards, such those with cracks or warping, can in some cases be repaired. If they aren't repaired, they can be separated from their electronic components.

[Jack Gassett] is developing a new breakout board for an FPGA. The chip comes in a ball grid array (BGA) package which is notoriously difficult to solder reliably. Since he’s still in develop… ...
