RSS technology feeds

The PCB heaven team is happy to announce the embodiment of an RSS feed in the news section. This is a brand new service that we freely and proudly provide to you!

The RSS feeds gives us the opportunity to have a better news coverage, including sectors of the electronics industry, new releases of software and products and also some business or financial news without of course setting aside the tech news we currently cover.

Our vision is to have dedicated news feeds for every sector of technology PCB Heaven covers.

We'll be more than happy to hear from you what preferences or comments you may have and discuss it in the forums.

You may subscribe to our RSS channels following the links bellow

We are widening our forum subjects to cover as much tech subjects as possible! You may discuss about electronics, electrical automations and PLCs, CNC machines, physics, mathematics, geometry, mechanics and many more subjects that have technology in common.

CNC Machine pages


We have receive many requests from users that would like us to cover this subject. After all, CNC are today's cut-edge of technology in machining and manufacturing process in many industries. We cover matter concerning operation, programming and troubleshooting.
As far as the programming is concerned, there is a tutorial currently running concerning the parametric and polymorphic programming technics.

Do not miss to visit the board forum for CNC machines.

Here is the tutorial in series that is currently running. Special thanks to our forum member Stamatis for this excellent job.

If you are tired making the same boring calculation over and over again, find here an on-line sophisticated calculator for your electronic circuits.
For example, suppose you have a batch of resistors that you do not know the value. You must then calculate it from it's color code. Not very hard but absolutely boring. Use the on-line resistor color code calculator from Dr. Calculus and it will do the job for you! Or do you have some transistors that you have to supply using a voltage divider? You can always use the voltage divider calculator from Dr. Calculus and in a few seconds you will have the resistor values that you need!


Just added:
Check if transistor is working, find type and pinout
555 calculator as astable oscillator
Op-Amps inverting amplifier calculator

You may select a transistor according to your application and your needs, your current and voltage parameters or your requested hfe that you want your transistor to have. We are willing to keep growing our database if we see that you like and use our selector. In any case you want to comment, please use our communication form.

Quick IC pin-out list

It is sometimes very often when you design an electronic project, to want a pin out of an 74 series or a 4000 series integrated circuit. You do not need the manual nor the operation of the J-K flip flop. This is common and everyone knows. You need only the pin out of the specific IC that carries this JK-FF. Therefore we have added an ascii pin out list for the most commonly used ICs. Use it for your convenient.

CD4000 Series pinout
74 Series pinout
Op amps pinout
Optocouplers pinout
