PCB design is an intricate process requiring careful consideration of a variety of factors and attention to the tiniest details. Fail to pay attention to these minute details, and you may end up tossing aside weeks of work to start anew when you realize that your failure to account for a material consideration or a …
Product engineers and electrical engineers have many choices when it comes to switch technology for their products. The switch is the component that breaks an electrical circuit and either interrupts the current or diverts it from one conductor to another. Typical switches include capacitive switches, mechanical switches, and membrane switches. Engineers also choose from flexible …

Printed electronics are used in more products today than ever before, as technology continues to advance and inkjet printers become more capable of printing electrical circuits faster and at a lower cost. Product designers and engineers rely on printed electronics for flexible screens, intelligent labels and packaging, OLEDs, medical devices, wearables, and other products. But, …
UI designers face the challenge of designing user interfaces that not only are functional but also are aesthetically pleasing and able to meet consumer expectations. Design a UI that is too confusing, and consumers or users won’t use the product. Design a UI that is too simplistic, and consumers will view your product as subpar. The …
Printed circuit boards are sometimes also called printed wiring boards or printed wiring cards, but you’ve likely most often heard these components referred to by their acronym, PCB. PCBs are used in nearly all electronics devices today, from computers to portable electronics and in applications ranging from manufacturing to aerospace. Engineers involved in the design …
A Definition of Printed Electronics Printed electronics is an all-encompassing term for the printing method used to create electronic devices by printing on a variety of substrates. Originally, printed electronics related to organic or plastic electronics that use one or more inks made of carbon-based compounds. As demand for wearable devices and thinner electronics expands, …
The field of medical technology (MedTech) changes constantly as new innovations and advancements are made in medical devices, medical IT, healthcare technology, and the Internet of Things for healthcare. MedTech product designers and engineers work collaboratively to design devices and products that will save lives and improve care while also meeting compliance regulations and federal …
Medical device design and development is a complex process rife with regulations, specifications, application requirements, and end user needs — all of which must be balanced and adhered to for a successful product. If your device lacks usability, market share will suffer, but if your device doesn’t meet regulatory guidelines, it won’t make it to …
