    Re: Paper Electronics

    It's been done before.
    The big problem with all of these is the high resistance of the traces (and the inconsistency). Paper also isn't as good as fiber glass pcb when it comes to insulating stuff. Works ok for low currents and low frequencies and low voltages, fails for anything else.

      Re: Paper Electronics

      You're absolutely right, I try to redesign my poorman LED tester with this. Because of the "the high resistance of the traces" I give it up.

      PS: I might try this one with very thick Silver Epoxy Adhesive.

        Artist seeking to tinker with electronics safely
        by Hypersapien
        Howdy folks! I'm an artist in the video game industry, and my job entails making a lot of mechanical and sci fi assets. I thought it might be a good practice to start disassembling some electronics to be more familiar with how real electronics are manufactured and assembled, which is how i found my way to these forums.

        When I started researching what tools I might need, I quickly encountered the warning "Some devices can maintain a potentially lethal charge in their capacitors, even up to years after last being powered on", which was enough of a scary thought for me to...

        Sensor on Aurora AS1018CD paper shredder doesn't work
        by CapSnap123
        I'm getting frustrated troubleshooting a paper shredder. The way the shredder normally works is when you turn the power on, nothing happens until you insert a piece of paper. There is an IR shredder in the shredder and inserting the paper breaks the beam and starts the shredder motor. But now the motor runs constantly, even when no paper is inserted. I've replaced the photodiode and the IR emitter. Also the relay makes a nice clicking sound so I assume it is working too. I don't know what else to check. Here's a photo of the circuit board. The red and black wires marked IR - go to the...

        General Question- Electronics from 70's and 80's
        by proton32064
        I have a question since I am new here and I don't know if this is the right forum to ask these questions or if I am wasting your time.
        I am 67 and have a lot of Radios and Electronics I grew up with which puts a lot of them at 50 years or older.
        A lot of the capacitors are obviously bad but this is my problem.
        An example would be the Panasonic RC-7469 Clock Radio and the Panasonic RF-888 Radio.
        I have others like a Canon L-162 Nixie Desktop Calculator 110AC, etc.

        I have the Service Manuals to some of these and other electronics I have and grew up with and...

        Electronics Books
        by Galindrada
        Good evening team,

        I've been trying to learn electronics since the beggining of the year. My main goal is to fix broken consoles/laptops. It has been a very fullfilling journey and fortunately I've found my way around and I've already fixed a few of them.

        While there's a lot of info online (this forum as an example) I would like to gather a few suggestions about books on electronics. I've already attempted to read a few ones, but to be honest I haven't found anyone that suits what I'm looking for. As an example "The Art of Electronics" is amazing, but there's...
