Micro-scale 3D printing accelerates electronics prototyping, reduces costs, and enables flexible design iterations at scale.

So you have a hot new hardware device that you’d like to develop and sell? Well, your first step is to create a working prototype. But where should you begin? There is no doubt that developing ...

SchmartBoard has announced that patent 7,511,228 has been granted for the company’s “EZ” technology for hand-soldering surface-mount technology (SMT) electronic components (see the figure). This ...

In designing and prototyping electronic circuit boards there is no quick or simple way to produce results. Many hours of design and development need to be expended on prototype layouts along with ...

MIT researchers have invented a way to integrate "breadboards" -- flat platforms widely used for electronics prototyping -- directly onto physical products. The aim is to provide a faster, easier way ...

Click to open image viewer. HP9100 A Prototype Electronic Calculator, Front Angle View This transistorized electronic calculator is the prototype for the first electronic calculator sold by ...

Makers, developers and hobbyists looking for a feature packed prototyping platform, maybe with giving a new piece of hardware called the Danyboard M0 a little more investigation. Danyboard M0 has been ...

An infinite number of inventions is waiting to happen. It’s often hard to figure out why one idea succeeds and another falls by the wayside. Many factors can impact success, ranging from the quality ...

It would be nice if your 3D printer could spit out PC boards. There’s been lots of work done to make that happen, mostly centered on depositing conductive material, although we’ve been surprised no ...

Research headed by professor Nosang Myung at Bourns College of Engineering, University of California, Riverside (UCR), has resulted in the development of a prototype "electronic nose." The work brings ...
