All that is necessary for this neat little project is a laser printer, a few household items and the circuit board components and chemicals, available at Radioshack or a local electronics retailer.

As demand for next-generation semiconductor chips grows, a team of researchers has succeeded in laser-drilling the world's tiniest circuit board holes, measuring a near-inconceivable 3 micrometers ...

In article number 2401901, David Estrada and co-workers demonstrate a new approach to flexible PCB manufacturing. Through the use of Pd nanoparticle catalysts embedded in laser-induced ...

The ProtoMat D104 circuit board plotter from German manufacturer LPKF performs mechanical and laser machining in one system, carving circuit tracks out of fully coated base materials by negative ...

Their presensitized copper-clad boards are designed to react to fluorescent light. In order to protect the areas where I want traces, I first need to create a positive transparent image of the circuit ...

The Laser Etched Recycled Circuit Board Clock is made from a recycled circuit board, and it features a clock face with no numbers. Instead, they have been replaced by a variety of schematic and ...

In 1975, the german engineer Jürgen Seebach developed a mechanical process for the production of printed circuit boards – the basis for the success of chemical-free printed circuit board structuring.

Laser staking automates printed-circuit-board packaging without damaging delicate electronics. Manufacturers of electronic components with printed-circuit boards (PCBs) have a new method for ...

We’re interested in any device that can make a PCB out of a copper-clad board, and this entry for the Hackaday Prize might be the simplest machine for PCB fabrication yet. It’s called the ...

Earlier this year [Skyhawkson] got ahold of an Apollo-era printed circuit board which he believes was used in a NASA test stand. He took high quality photos of both sides of the board and ...
