“If any of my maker friends out there are looking to print PCB’s I recommend BasicPCB. I did a prototyping run and got 3 PCB’s for $18. This would have cost me closer to $150 from my normal sources.”
AllAboutCircuits.com (also know as AAC) is one of the largest electrical engineering communities with a good mix of news, articles, contests, engineering resources, and a great forum.
One of the tools that caught our attention is their PCB Calculators for electrical engineering and electronics page. This page has a list of very helpful calculators for printed circuit board design complete with detailed descriptions, equations, and applications laid out in a very user-friendly way. Users can quickly fill out the required fields and hit “calculate” or dive further into the actual equation used to calculate the results and have access to articles with more information on the matter.
