QSPICE is an analog and mixed-signal simulator characterized by high simulation speed, accuracy and reliability. It is a new program and can be downloaded here. QSPICE is still in the demonstration ...

Xtreme Circuits is a blog devoted to using circuits for a variety of applications, whether it be for toys, games or electrical devices. With each project post comes a detailed write up of what the ...

In the desktop 3D printing world, we’re fortunate to have multiple online repositories of models that anyone can load up on their machine. Looking to create a similar experience but for ...

After several years of experimentation, and growing success in volume manufacturing for some use cases, technologies for 3D printing of electronic circuits are becoming more common. Some innovations ...

New “transient electronics” dissolve in the presence of water, opening up a new range of possible applications. Image via the Beckman Institute, University of Illinois and Tufts University For most of ...

FOR years engineers have dreamed of building electronic circuits that would bend and stretch, rather than being confined to rigid chips and boards. Flexible circuitry would be able to do many things ...

Hardware hacking often seems like black magic to the uninitiated, which is why 123D Circuits is so cool: it allows you to learn electronics using a virtual Arduino board and breadboard without blowing ...

Scientists have engineered one of the world's smallest electronic circuits. It is formed by two wires separated by only about 150 atoms or 15 nanometers. A team of scientists, led by Guillaume Gervais ...

Researchers have combined liquid metal and a heat-activated adhesive to create an electrically conductive patch that bonds to ...

Iron-on patches can repair clothing or add personal flair to backpacks and hats. And now they could power wearable tech, too.
