This may sound like a strange title but for many years Eurocircuits has been manufacturing PCB Art. What is PCB Art? Simply put it is a PCB’s that stand out from the ordinary and combines art with industrial electronics. We have been working with Saar Drimer (founder of Boldport) an electronic artist for many years. […]
INDUSTRIAL ETHERNET CONNECTOR BENCHMARK Posted on behalf of TE connectivity, Den Bosch, The Netherlands Industrial IoT developments ask for smaller and more reliable connectors. Latency requirements will call for higher connection reliability in environmentally severe industrial applications with vibrations. Even for industrial IP20 applications the default connector of choice is typically the RJ45, which is originally […]

Low-cost calibrator delivers -5V to +10V DC with 70-µV error Posted on behalf of Jordan Dimitrov Calibration, the stage of truth in the design of every test and measurement device, is done with calibrators, sophisticated highly accurate multifunctional instruments, which cost thousands of dollars. In many cases however you do not need to go to the […]
Intelligent Power Switch for Raspberry Pi Posted on behalf of Peter Boxler A Raspberry Pi does not have an On/Off switch and there is no easy way to shutdown the Pi while keeping the file system intact. This Intelligent Power Switch brings a clever solution to this problem: Power-On the Pi by pressing a pushbutton […]
Suitability of an enhanced low melting point alloy for a handheld device Posted on behalf of Interflux Electronics NV Current lead-free soldering temperatures can damage temperature sensitive components. Moreover they can cause a shift in the properties of some components which can impact the functionality of sensitive electronic devices. An easy way to solve this […]
How to Prevent Emission Problems on Board Level Posted on behalf of CNRood, active in the BeNeLux & Sweden For many, the result of an EMC test comes as an unpleasant surprise. Large amounts of money and time are spent in re-designing the product, which causes heavy delays. The main cause of these additional costs […]
Together with Prof. Francesco P. Volpe, professor for microcomputer technique and digital electronics at the University of Applied Sciences Aschaffenburg, we examined the impact of different numbers of copper layers and thicknesses on the cooling of a SMD linear voltage regulator. The associated experiment is detailed in the following: If we want to construct a […]
Alex Wilkinson of W Technology, 1 Chamberlain Place, Kidlington, Oxford, UK, became very interested in the eC-test-mate after seeing it demonstrated on the Eurocircuits stand at a recent trade show. W Technology develops and designs circuits, PCBs and firmware for a wide variety of products and product areas. Following on from the design phase, the […]
