How the brain gets wired up matters. Consider the neurons involved in the sense of smell. Hook them up wrong, and suddenly turpentine might smell like a lovely chianti.

After several years of experimentation, and growing success in volume manufacturing for some use cases, technologies for 3D printing of electronic circuits are becoming more common. Some innovations ...

Space savings, greater reliability, low mass, and high ductility are some of the advantages offered by flexible PCBs, but designers must also prepare for their complexity. Flexible printed circuit ...

To help achieve more precise control of gene therapy, engineers have designed a new control circuit that can keep gene expression levels within a target range. The method could be used to deliver ...

Operational amplifiers are a valuable component for designers. There are many different types of circuits that can be designed using op amps. Designers may not be aware of all of the possible ...
