Elektor, also known as Elektor Magazine,[3] is a monthly magazine about all aspects of electronics, originally published in the Netherlands as Elektronica Wereld in 1961 and latterly Elektuur in 1964,[4] and now published worldwide in many languages including English, German, Dutch, French, Greek (September 1982 to May 2008[5]), Spanish, Swedish, Portuguese (European and Brazilian) and Italian with distribution in over 50 countries.

Elektor publishes a vast range of electronic projects, background articles and designs aimed at engineers, enthusiasts, students and professionals.

To help readers build featured projects, Elektor also offer PCBs (printed circuit boards) of many of their designs, as well as kits and modules.

If the project employs a microcontroller and/or PC software, as is now often the case, Elektor normally supply the source code and files free of charge via their website.

Elektor also publishes books, CDs and DVDs about audio, microprocessors, software, programming languages and general purpose electronics.
