The complexity and density of electronics design has increased, partly due to the rise of the mobile industry, introducing new challenges for printed-circuit board (PCB) designers. Embedding ...

In recent months, the ability to hide components inside a circuit board has become an item of interest. We could trace this to the burgeoning badgelife movement, where engineers create beautiful works ...

Murata has introduced the GRU series, the world’s thinnest embedded monolithic capacitor for substrates. Using advanced ceramic technology, the new 0402 size capacitor, measuring only 1.0mm x 0.5mm x ...

A good switching power supply requires a good printed circuit board. In order to make an efficient one, the PCB designer should understand the phenomenon behind the operation of the typical switching ...

Murata has introduced the GRU series, said to be the world's thinnest embedded monolithic capacitor for substrates. Using advanced ceramic technology, the 0402 size device, measuring 1 x 0.5 x 0.15mm, ...

Researchers at the Fraunhofer IAF have integrated their monolithically integrated GaN power ICs using PCB embedding technology as a half bridge circuit, including gate and DC-link capacitors. By this ...

Through-hole assembly means bending leads on components and putting the leads through holes in the circuit board, then soldering them in place, and trimming the wires. That took up too much space and ...

How the fast switching speeds and other characteristics of SiC devices create new challenges in DC-link capacitor design. Key ...

Researchers at the Fraunhofer-Institute for Applied Solid State Physics IAF have integrated their monolithically integrated GaN power ICs using PCB embedding technology as a half bridge circuit, ...

With digital twins (virtual replicas of objects or systems) of capacitors, engineers can simulate system-level interactions ...
