Preferring to spend hours typing code instead of graphically pushing traces around in a PCB layout tool, [James Bowman] over at ExCamera Labs has developed CuFlow, a method for routing PCBs in Python.

PCB routing methods continue to evolve, and flexible routing techniques can reduce wire length and free up space on a PCB. Traditional PCB routing is limited by fixation of coordinates of wires and by ...

A common joke in electronics is that every piece of wire and PCB trace is an antenna, with the only difference being whether this was intentional or not. In practical terms, low-frequency wiring is ...

Today, there are a number of high speed digital communication protocols applied in portable computing devices with compact PCB dimensions. Protocols such as PCIe, USB, and SATA have data throughput of ...

PCBs are the future generation of printed circuit board technology, which allows high-performance, space-saving ...

Mentor Graphics Xpedition xPCB Layout has introduced new capabilities that will boost designers abilities to create even more complex PCB designs in less time and with greater accuracy than ever ...

Engineers can take advantage of faster routing, improved workflow tools, and enhanced import/export capabilities, making it a ...

A structured design review process ensures alignment across teams.
