PCB Renewal: Iterative Reuse of PCB Substrates for Sustainable Electronic Making

PCB (printed circuit board) substrates are often single-use, leading to material waste in electronics making. We introduce PCB Renewal , a novel technique that "erases" and "reconfigures" PCB traces by selectively depositing conductive epoxy onto outdated areas, transforming isolated paths into conductive planes that…
