Old electronics are tricky to recycle, meaning they clog up landfills while locking valuable metals away. Now scientists have demonstrated printed circuits that can be degraded on demand, returning ...

Most electronics are built on flat, stiff boards, which makes it incredibly difficult to fit them onto curved and irregular ...

Chinese researchers have developed a novel electronics fabrication technique that could redefine how high-performance ...

An international group of researchers has developed an electronic device that is said to effectively mitigate hotspots in PV modules. It uses two current comparators, two NPN transistors, and a ...

Water is usually something you’d want to keep away from electronic circuits, but engineers in Germany have now developed a new concept for water-based switches that are much faster than current ...

QSPICE is an analog and mixed-signal simulator characterized by high simulation speed, accuracy and reliability. It is a new program and can be downloaded here. QSPICE is still in the demonstration ...

Discover how this powerful open-source SPICE simulator helps you analyse and validate analog, digital and mixed-signal circuits long before hardware is built with detailed netlist control, real ...

Efficient processes are needed to build a circuit board. Five students in Duane Beck’s manufacturing engineering technology senior design class developed prototype equipment to improve an inspection ...

Water molecules distort the electrical resistance of graphene, but a team of researchers has discovered that when this two-dimensional material is integrated with the metal of a circuit, contact ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Circuit boards form the foundation of modern electronics, but their production relies on materials that persist in the environment for centuries. These boards must meet precise ...
