The printed circuit board is one of the most important electronic components in the world today. These boards, known as PCBs, are inside of all computers and other electronic devices like digital alarm clocks, coffee makers, smart devices, and mobile phones. If the devices did not have PCBs, they would not do anything. The Brain of the Device It is easy to liken the PCB to the brain of the computer. These i ...

“What does solar energy have to do with our everyday lives?” It has long been used since the third century. People used it to create fire. They used the fire to cook and to warm themselves from cold weather. Other than that, later on, they learned that they could use it for hunting and lighting their caves. It only shows that it has played a great role in the lives of our ancestors and their way of living.  ...
