DIY Coffee Alarm using DS1302 RTC Module and HM-10 Bluetooth Module I have come up with the idea of a Coffee Alarm as a solution to my own real-life problem. Like any other youngster, I normally have a lot of tasks to complete every day. Before going to bed every night, I set my alarm at 6 A.M., and when the alarm starts ringing, I snooze it repeatedly and wake up at around 9 A.M. I tried different alarm apps which demands… |

Design and Build a Touch Capacitive Based PCB Light Panel to Control NeoPixel LED Strip In this tutorial we are going to make a Touch Capacitive PCB using an ATMega328P IC to control neo pixel led strip. We will include some features such as music reactive mode, random animation mode, and RGB controlling mode on our PCB. So far, we've made a touch capacitive piano where you can find the basics of touch capacitive technology. And now in this… |

What are SMD Thermal Jumpers and How to Implement them in Your Next Design! In this article, we will talk about SMD thermal management and design, and specifically about PCB Thermal Jumpers or Thermal Conductors. If we were to take the heat out from a through-hole component, the simple way is to put a big heat sink on and the heat sink will draw out all the heat from the device. The main advantage of the SMD component is that it reduces manual labor… |

How does Environmental EMI, Temperature, Dust, Moisture, Rain, and other conditions affect the performance of your PCB? If you have worked with electronics, you would probably agree that there is never an "ideal condition" for your circuit, the working of a circuit can easily be influenced by the environment in which it is being operated. Even a circuit that is well designed and tested could behave very differently in an industrial environment. In this article, we will explore… |

Design and Build an Arduino Based Touch Capacitive Piano with Recording and Replay Hello! everyone, this tutorial will be extremely exciting for electronics makers because we will be designing our own touch-capacitive Piano with Arduino Nano. We will include a recording and replay feature on our Piano. So far, we've made a few piano projects using Arduino, but this one is quite different because we are going to use capacitive touch keys for our piano… |

Where Does India Stand in PCBA Production? Upholding the momentum of domestic manufacturing of PCBA is fundamental to the country’s focus on decreasing trade discrepancy and reliance on China and Vietnam. The procedure of Printed Circuit Board (PCB) manufacturing is extremely imperative for anyone associated in the electronics industry. In general PCBs can be defined as a laminated sandwich… |

IoT Based Smart Fan Control using ESP8266 and Blynk Well, IoT is trending everywhere and is one of the greatest things that can be used to make life easier. There are many IoT based home automation projects available on the internet but none of them provides you an option to control the speed of fan over the internet. So here, in this project, we’ll be making an IoT fan speed control… |

An Overview of Layer Stack Management in PCB Design When it comes to designing complex high-density PCBs, layer planning is important for different types of applications. Poor PCB layer stackup management contributes to the poor PCB design and ultimately cause the PCB to malfunction. Layer stackup is a process where lots of things are merged in a simple but calculative way into a single PCB design. To understand layer… |

ESP8266 based Smart Plug to Make Your Home Appliances IoT Enabled Ever since I started to work with the ESP Wi-Fi Modules, I always wanted to build a smart Wi-Fi socket that enables me to control my AC loads wirelessly through smart phone. While products like these are already available in the market, like the popular Moko WiFi Smart Plug or Sonoff, they are a bit expensive and on top of that it doesn’t give you the joy of building your… |

Why do we need Differential Pair Routing and How can you use it for your next PCB Design? When you think about a PCB (Printed Circuit Boards) in general you can say it’s a piece of a board made out of fiberglass in which small and complex connections are etched with copper, but after designing hundreds of PCBs, I can tell you its a sophisticated piece of art where a perfectly designed circuit diagram is born, to become a part of the real world. A circuit or… |
