Collaborate Disseminate
We all love PCB artwork, but those who create it work under the restriction of having a limited color palette to work with. If it’s not some combination of board, …read more Continue reading A Real-World Experience In PCB Dye-Sub Printing

These experiments used a process known as pad printing, and so far all indications are that pad printing is a viable process for truly multicolor artistic PCBs. For this year’s DEF CON, I’m stepping things up and taking them to their logical conclusion. I’m making true multicolor PCBs with orange and blue ink. This is, I believe, the first time this has ever been done with printed circuit board art, and it is certainly the first time it has ever been documented.
You may be wondering why I …read more
