Printed circuit boards are easy to underestimate. To most people,

Reflow soldering sounds simple. Put solder paste on the board,

Surface mount technology looks clean from the outside. Boards move

Temperature sensing looks easy on paper. Pick a sensor, read

A zero-ohm (0Ω) resistor looks like a joke component. If

At the start of a hardware project, one question shows

Picking a wireless module looks easy at prototype stage. Then

Your prototype works. Good. That still does not mean it
