Bus bars are not typically viewed as cutting-edge technology but circuit designers can take advantage multi-layer bus bar configurations. Regardless of a bus bar’s size or complexity, its fundamental ...

Despite the widespread use of low-power ICs—or counterintuitively, because of it—DC power-rail currents on PCBs keep increasing. It’s not unusual to have a modest-size board drawing high tens of amps ...

Copper bus bars are commonly used instead of wire for carrying high currents. [Dane] needed some bus bars for a project, but he was worried about corrosion. His solution was tin electroplating the bus ...
