Understanding the Basics of Shielding Before diving into the specifics of Custom Shielding, it is crucial to understand the fundamentals of shielding itself. Shielding is the process of creating a barrier that prevents electromagnetic waves from passing through, thus protecting sensitive electronic components and devices from interference. This interference can […]
What is a PCB Inductor? A PCB inductor, also known as a printed circuit board inductor, is a passive electronic component that stores energy in a magnetic field when electric current flows through it. It consists of a coil of conductive material, usually copper, that is wound around a core […]
What is a 94v0 Circuit Board? A 94v0 circuit board, also known as a FR-4 circuit board, is a type of printed circuit board (PCB) that is made from a flame-retardant material. The “94” in the name refers to the UL94 flammability standard, and the “v0” indicates that the material […]
