Wafer thin silicon crystals arranged in highly specific structures. Add some gold and other metals, and the resulting conglomerate can do the thinking for me.

What's the green stuff the circuit board's made of?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Today it can be just dye, but solder masks used to be naturally green due to the nature of how these boards were made.

The PCB as a whole? Usually fiberglass or some other substrate to which sheets of copper are fastened. Then wherever you don't want a copper trace is removed by acid. Then the board is covered by something that acts as a protective layer to prevent oxidation.

Jeweled Lotus. Unlike Sol Ring that can go in any deck, you need to think if Jeweled Lotus really belongs in the deck. Most of the time maybe yes, sometimes, no.
