Applying Copper Foil Tape to a Metal Surface
With the holidays and lots of business travel in recent weeks, I decided to write a simple Technical Tidbit this month. In addition to uses during the holiday season, copper foil tape can be very useful around the lab. This month's Technical Tidbit discusses a method of helping insure a low resistance connection between copper foil tape and underlying metal. Abstract: Copper foil tape is very useful for quick circuit board changes, shielding fixes, and many other uses around the lab. Sometimes a low resistance connection between the foil and the underlying metal is necessary. A simple technique is described to help insure a low resistance connection. The link to the article is the picture of the experimental test setup at the bottom of the home page at http://emcesd.com . I am thinking of starting a weekly or monthly mp3 audio technical podcast like, although manual download, program on measurement and troubleshooting issues. It will be 5 to 10 minutes in length and possibly start in January. It will be free! I will likely not announce it here, just post it on my website so as not to generate too much traffic all at once.
