		<title>Homemade PCB</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Homemade Printed circuit board or PCB is one of the important things to assemble an electronic circuit. It provides support to the components and makes electrical connection between the parts. In PCB assembling, the components are placed on one side of the Copper laminate passing their pins or leads to the other side through the <a href="http://www.printedcircuitsboards.com/diy-pcb/162/homemade-pcb.html" class="more-link">More &#62;</a>]]></description>

		<title>Photo Etching PCB</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A great video about DIY photo etching PCB produced by jollino. This is a  photo-etching walkthrough to show how I make my own printed circuit boards (PCB) at home.
He uses Eagle in order to design the PCB layout. Everything is designed in reverse and does a test print on regular paper to be sure <a href="http://www.printedcircuitsboards.com/etch/158/photo-etching-pcb.html" class="more-link">More &#62;</a>]]></description>

		<title>SMD SMT soldering</title>
		<description><![CDATA[SMD soldering &#8211; At first, I tinned all the circuit board pads for the SMD chips before trying to mount them. That was a mistake. With both pads for chip tinned, heating up one end of the chip caused the situation in Figure 5. When heat was applied to the other end, the chip would <a href="http://www.printedcircuitsboards.com/soldering/102/smt-smd-soldering.html" class="more-link">More &#62;</a>]]></description>
