Elektor Circuit Special
Show your circuit, board, module, component, tool, or application inside one of Elektor’s most hands-on editions. The Circuit Special is built around practical electronics, clever circuits, small projects, design ideas, and useful engineering tips.
The Elektor Circuit Special is a practical, project-driven edition. Project placements and partner contributions are subject to editorial review and approval to keep the edition relevant and useful for readers.
Why this edition
The Circuit Special is designed for engineers, pro makers, students, and electronics enthusiasts who want practical solutions. It is especially relevant for companies with boards, ICs, modules, instruments, tools, kits, reference designs, or application circuits that can be shown in a buildable, useful way.
Instead of only showing a product message, place your technology in a practical electronics context that readers can understand and apply.
The edition is built for people who spend time with schematics, component choices, test setups, design trade-offs, and working electronics ideas.
Partner contributions should offer real technical value. Elektor’s team can help assess whether a project, story, or placement fits the edition.
Campaign formats
The Circuit Special can support direct advertising, editorial-style project ideas, and wider campaign packages. Exact placement and editorial integration depend on the concept, available space, and approval by Elektor.
Present a practical application, reference design, or engineering use case around your technology in a format aligned with the edition.
Book standard print ad formats such as full page, half page, third page, or quarter page in the Circuit Special issue.
