Early in the planning process of a magnetic component, designers select a core, which drives all of the component variables. The core then becomes an element in a series of calculations and is used to ...

Utilization of additive manufacturing for gas turbine component design has been demonstrated to accelerate design cycle times, reduce development test times, provide increased test data and serve to ...

Process design kits consist of a set of files that typically contain descriptions of the basic building blocks of the process. They are expressed, algorithmically, as Pcells. These descriptions are ...

Although PCBs are the basic foundational block for all electronic circuits in today’s generation, it is essential to follow several rules and guidelines while designing the circuits. These rules are ...

Once upon a time, integrated circuits (ICs) were built by the same companies that designed them. The design of an IC was tightly integrated with the manufacturing processes available within each ...

A structured design review process ensures alignment across teams.

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 ...
