There may be nothing new under the sun when it comes to etching PCBs with UV light, but [Heliosoph] has brought finer control to a used face tanner he bought that now exposes his boards in ~50 seconds ...

PCB etching seems to be a subject that sharply divides our community into those who are experts in it and etch themselves every PCB they use, and those who have significant quantities of ferric ...

CNC machining mills away copper using a CNC router and design software chemical etching uses UV light, photo-resist, and chemicals to remove copper CNC machining is safer and less wasteful, but slower ...

Through precise control of the etching process, a researcher in Oxford University’s Photofabrication Unit has made the reliable production of high resolution printed circuit board (PCBs), with ...

The method of printing PCBs has not changed for decades. In the early days of imaging circuit boards a substrate (copper laminate) was screen printed with a liquid etch resist; this was then oven ...

Building your own printed circuit board is an invaluable skill set in the arsenal of any self-serious electronics hobbyist or “hands-on” entrepreneur; it does not require any special sort of wizardry ...

The copper layers of a printed circuit board are the central focus of any circuit design, the other layers only support or protect the circuit, or simplify the assembly process. For starting PCB ...
