After a few minutes, it felt… warm. This is really strange since the 1206 SMD Resistor has a power rating […]

In the beginning There are some developments in this Hobby which sometimes pushes me beyond the edge and I am not talking about comfort zone. For over more than a decade, I have witness my own development in terms of PCB design and the final products. From basic marker etching to using photolithograhy using software, […]
