Digi-Key, the electronic component distributor, has decided to venture into schematic tools with Scheme-it, a free web-based schematic drawing and diagramming tool. Designed using HTML5 technology, ...

, and not much else. But if you replace that metallic ink with real silver, you get something quite remarkable: a pen that can draw functioning circuits on paper. Engineers at the University of ...

Soft electronic circuits could be used to develop new wearable or implantable devices. Scientists have developed a way to produce soft, flexible and stretchy electronic circuits and radio antennas by ...

The demand for ever faster, cheaper electronics is pushing the lithography-based manufacturing techniques standard in the semiconductor industry to their limits. Now researchers report a cheap, fast ...

Professors Jennifer Lewis and Jennifer Bernhard at the University of Illinois have come up with a way to draw circuits with a pen. Not circuit diagrams. Any old pen can do that. No, the pen is a ...

Big Blue is tinkering with a new material that could drastically slash the costs of ?drawing? circuits on semiconductors, and the stuff is a close relative to tennis shoe glue. Michael Kanellos is ...
