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.
