A year ago, I’ve design reviewed an MCU module for CAN hacking, called TinySparrow. Modules are plenty cool, and even more so when they’re intended for remaking car ECUs. For a while now, every car ...
Semiconductor manufacturers have developed innovative production techniques that enable the integration of multiple components and a dc-dc converter IC die into a single module. Producing such a dc-dc ...
With the Raspberry Pi Pico in mind, UK company OpenLX SP has answered the question: ‘how do I temporarily mount a castellated solder-down PCB module?’. The answer is a connector dubbed Clipzin, which ...
Last month’s column talked about a simpler way to exchange stackups with manufacturing partners. This month, continuing the ...
The primary switched PMAS5-S and PMAS-L power modules suit PCB mounting and are vacuum encapsulated. The vertically mounted PMAS5-S module measures 42 x 30.1 x 18.2-mm while the PMAS5-L horizontal ...
After releasing the very powerful P895BD-AP AIoT module at CES 2026, Quectel now released two new low-power industrial AIoT ...
Basically, the core technology of a Pi has been repackaged and released in a new form, aimed at those creating their own PCB. You can now fit the core of the Pi into your own larger system. The ...
Taiwan-based HDI PCB firms including Unimicron Technology, Tripod Technology and Dynamic Electronics continue to see a ramp-up in demand for server and datacenter memory modules, with clear order ...
A thermally-conductive PCB substrate, Tlam SS LLD enables effective heat dissipation in bright and ultra-bright LED module applications. The thermally conductive PCB substrate allegedly provides eight ...
I enjoy seeing modules that can make designing other devices easier, and when I did a call for design reviews, [enp6s0] has submitted one such board to us. It’s a module called TinySparrow (GitHub), ...
