PCB design is rarely a straight line. In many cases, the challenge is not the design itself—but missing preparation, unclear constraints, or late changes. This eBook walks you through the typical process step by step—and highlights where things usually go wrong and how to avoid them. A practical guide based on real projects and +25 years of experience.

Antenna design is difficult to get right using theory alone. As soon as real-world constraints are introduced, simulations become necessary to predict performance. This guide explains the fundamentals, common antenna types, and how to approach the design process in a structured way.

Electronics heat issues often show up late—adding risk and delay to your projects. These two-part webinars introduce practical thermal management techniques early in the design phase. → In Part 1, you'll learn the fundamentals of heat flow (thermodynamics, conduction, convection, radiation) and how FEA tools model component and Joule heating. → Part 2 goes deeper into materials, component models, CFD simulations, and the differences between steady‑state and transient analysis. If you work with compact or high-power electronics, this webinar series gives you usable methods to find and solve heat problems before fabrication—saving time and reducing risk.

Exotic problems don’t cause most PCB failures. They come from a small number of well‑known signal and power integrity issues that appear again and again—often late in the design cycle. This white paper walks through the ten SI and PI problems most likely to cause respins, including impedance mismatch, crosstalk, PDN resonance, ground bounce, via stubs, and timing skew. Each issue is explained with clear causes, practical design tips, and real‑world examples from high‑speed designs. Download the white paper and reduce the risk of costly PCB design failures.

Most PCB failures don’t come from the schematic. They stem from layout decisions—impedance changes, return-path breaks, and power-delivery issues. This guide explains what actually happens electrically on your board—and how to avoid problems before they show up in testing.

On September 22nd in Gothenburg and the 23rd in Malmö, we will host seminars covering two highly relevant topics for all working in electronics development: 📡 RF and antenna design | Morning session (09:00–12:00) 🤖 AI in schematic and PCB design | Afternoon session (13:00–15:30) It's free to attend, and you may register for one or both sessions. But each session is limited to 15 participants.
