"Happy Christmas to all my friends on here... I hope it's a good one for all of you and look forward to new challenges in the new year!"
"Today I'm designing a PCB for high volume, low power, power supply applications."
"I'm currently in the middle of designing a board for testing our chips in production."
Daniel Hanten commented on Simon Farnell's blog post What is it about PCB Design?"Hi Simon,
I am not in the PCB design industry, but I am in the manufacturing arena for them. I always wondered what those people were thinking when they came up with some of the designs we are asked to build. We build mostly for…"
"I think education and real work experience should work together much more. I've found that many of the things I've been taught at college, I've never used. But real work experience would lead to young people being more readily…"
Scott McCafferty commented on Simon Farnell's blog post What is it about PCB Design?"Hi Simon,
Sorry I missed your note earlier - I work closely with Sunstone on business issues and find that they are very passionate about their tools & service - if you give them a shot (which I'd recommend based on my…"
Leslie Langnau commented on Simon Farnell's blog post What is the limit?"Love your comments, Simon. It is amazing what has happened, and the most amazing thing is that as small as this technology becomes, it still works, and pretty reliably too! I love my iPhone--it is an amazing piece of technology.…"

I spend most of life in disbelief!
Many would think that being an engineer would prepare you for the way that technology enables us to do things, like fitting more into a smaller space, the speed that we can process information and even some of the technologies that are becoming more and more available, like nano technology.
But guess what…It doesn’t.
I think this is because I’m an engineer, when a PCB supplier says “ we’ve made a…

What is it about PCB's that make them such an interesting piece of engineering?
I'm asking myself this question as I sit here on a Friday evening after a week of fairly intensive work on PCB design documentation etc... From my point of view I create a multitude of different board designs from single layer power supply application boards to multilayer test boards being used in instrumentation. Each of these types of designs have their own frustrations…
