Interview with Chief Energy Manager Thomas Hojenski: Manufacturing PCBs? There’s a sustainable way to do it!
In Germany, industry accounts for around 31 percent of annual energy consumption. If the energy revolution is to succeed, companies must accept their responsibilities by reviewing and auditing consumption and looking for ways to optimize it. With rising energy prices, this makes sense not only ecologically, but also economically. In addition to consumption, there is

Tips for PCB design with copper elements (HSMtec) – Part 2
Design rules for high current conductor paths These rules must be observed when designing HSMtec printed circuit boards: Standard values for HSMtec PCBs are 0.8 to 3.2 mm final thickness; maximum 12 layers; maximum 3 layers for the copper cross-sections with copper profiles as well as currents up to 400 A Basic rule for current

Tips for PCB design with copper elements (HSMtec) – Part 1
When designing HSMtec-PCBs with integrated copper elements, it is generally recommended to design the high-current conductors before the standard layout. The development process of an HSMtec printed circuit board takes place in 10 design steps: Define mechanical features: Determine the size and contour of the printed circuit board Place power components: define short and simple
