Item039: Computer Circuit Board Pendant - Laptop, Rectangle, Blue and Bronze

About the Jewelry

This pendant is made from an upcycled computer circuit board. Once computer chips are completed, they are placed with other computer chips on a circuit board. The board’s function is to physically support the chips and connect them together. Boards are made in layers to allow the wires, or traces, to connect the desired chips together without touching each other. The more chips, the more layers and copper traces are needed. This board is from a complex laptop mainboard. Laptop boards must be small and lightweight. This one has multiple tiny chips, and other components (like capacitors, resistors, and inductors) mounted on it.

Included in the resealable bag:

The 1"x1.5" bronze pendant (due to manufacturing differences your board may look slightly different than the one pictured here), a 24" bronze necklace, and a ChipScapes card that gives information about this jewelry.
