We did a lot of cool stuff in 2025. Like when visited and held a fun lab competition with the PCB design students.
First round was a fabrication line.
Second round was an escape room inspired exercise focusing on finding solutions to SMT board assembly errors.
Congrats to the teams:
1st place: Noah, Eric, Munina, Kiley, and Antonio
2nd place: Ben, Klaus, Danny, and Ricardo
3rd place: Evelyn, Eldon, Hakim, Tyrese, and Miranda

ELTN 115 teaches students how to take a working circuit design and lay out a custom PCB which is the final stage of an electronic design project. The lay out is done using CAD software. Students learn how to export the needed files to have their boards manufactured.
PBC layout design and manufacturing is a skill set that any technician or hobbyist should not be without!
Enroll in ELTN 115 today at Pasadena.edu for the Fall 2024 semester! CRN 77231. Class meets Monday and Wednesdays 1:30-4pm.
Prerequisites will be cleared for ALL students. Email [email protected] for assistance.
Pictures is the custom main board for the MIT 101 robot, which was designed by a student.
