Whether you’re routing high-speed buses, fine-tuning antennas, or laying out clean RF filters, sharp 90º or even 45º angles can be a serious bottleneck. Now, you can create precisely curved elbows across entire nets—or dial them in trace by trace—with full control over radius, inheritance, and overrides.

A comprehensive guide to using solder flux in electronics soldering. Soldering flux is used to clean and prepare the surfaces of the components that need to be joined. It helps to remove oxidation and other contaminants that can prevent a strong bond from forming. Flux also reduces surface tension, allowing the solder to flow more easily and improves the wetting of the components.
