DRC is an automated process that checks your PCB layout against manufacturing and electrical constraints, catching errors like trace spacing and drill sizes before fabrication. Modern tools run this in real-time during design, while older ones batch-check at the end, often producing overwhelming error lists.
This post explains key signal integrity issues like crosstalk and reflections in PCBs and offers simple layout tips to avoid them. A free guide is included.
Flux Copilot’s new AI-powered part search makes finding and placing components faster and easier using natural language. It eliminates tool-switching and datasheet overload. This streamlines your PCB design workflow.
This blog highlights CES 2025 showcased projects, offering insights on how to recreate them using Flux. With Flux AI-driven design tools, component library, and customizable templates, engineers and hobbyists can build inspired hardware like wearables, drones, EV components, portable chargers, and solar devices.
This article highlights 10 of the most popular microcontrollers, based on their usage in embedded systems, memory architecture, and the community support they enjoy.
In this post, we’ll explore five common mistakes companies make when contracting PCB design and how you can avoid them by using tools like Flux to keep your project on track, from concept to completion.
