Nonetheless it would be useful to know whether you can service requirements like sub 0.1mm track width, HDI, sub 0.2mm hole size and so on. I'll experiment and put something small but tricky through and see what comes out.

One of the things I've been seeking out are the PCB capabilities. I have two boards I need to make, one 4 layer and one 6 layer, the 6 layer having 0.4mm pitch BGA's if I can cost benefit justify it. I'm not finding that info

I don't know, but they have your phone number. In the UK at least that can be done with a premium SMS.

Good catch. I feel slightly uncomfortable when individuals engage in too much superhero / I'm the One fantasy. Just a wee bit too much adrenaline and dopamine sometimes. I sincerely hope GCHQ don't have superhero costume part

In England, especially in the eighteenth century, we had a somewhat similar, though harsher regime where one strike against you on a charge of petty larceny could lead to imprisonment in HM prisons. Of course the prison population swelled

I fasted for about 28 days once, when I was 18yo. Just water. Coming off it took days, with just diluted orange and apple juice. Eventually after about a week I started on solids. Quite an experience. I was perfectly healthy before it, and

Yes. Clocks and reactances in circuit always spring to mind as likely candidates almost immediately when you include hardware. A PCB's EMI can be altered measurably by software decisions. An acquaintance asked the other day why his to

Yes, esoteric or 'accurate' sound reproduction equipment isn't preferred. For example, the famous Yamaha NS10 loudspeaker used for sound mixing is not a speaker that a music listener can bear for very long. Its tiring. But th

It's worth stating again that wikileaks did not simply do as you say, and release, or if you prefer, publish the documents sourced from Manning without editorial constraint, at least until the cables were themselves public. The Iraq lo

This is a surprise. I've never been fingerprinted at a US port. Perhaps it's because I have a biometric passport. Still, such a practice can't be universal.

I'll agree with this as well. There's a massive amount of reference designs available, from ARM Cortex M embedded designs to, and in no particular order, ADC's, motor controllers, power supplies, touch sensors and so on from

It's my unfamiliarity with city prices I've discovered. I apologise for my lack of knowledge there. Still, the regional price I see in the large country town I'm in is in a way the exception that demonstrates this observation

I'm in Australia from the UK and yes, the prices can be ridiculously high. I have my own version of the McDonald's index, the bread index. In supermarkets in the UK quality organic whole meal fresh bake is £1.10 which is about $1.

It's a hodge podge of loose notions, and is pretty well techno babble, especially considering the materials hyperbole. The screen however is very reminiscent of Atmel's XSense touch sensor, which I'm keen to play with[1]. The
