Figure 2. Effect of the BaTiO3 nanodots
The BaTiO3 nanodots concentrate electric current in a ring around them and create paths through which Li ions can pass, even at really high charge/discharge rates.

ASC’s John Johnson Bullish on the U.S. and High-tech PCBs
04/28/2026 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007It was a good couple of days at the SMTA UHDI Symposium in Avondale, Arizona, in early April, where John Johnson, head of technology at American Standard Circuits (ASC) and resident PCB expert on UHDI in the real-world of manufacturing, was a presenter. As the symposium ended, I visited with John, who reflected on what he considered most important and what had made the greatest impression on him.
Wire Harness Taking a Step in the Right Direction
04/08/2026 | Nolan Johnson, SMT007 MagazineTo fully understand the modernization of wire harness design and assembly, we met with members of the Innovation Advisory Team for the Wire Harness Manufacturer’s Association (WHMA) to outline the current challenges facing wire harnesses and the specific steps to implement a digital data flow from OEM to manufacturer and back. In some ways, the wire harness industry is moving from 19th-century to 21st-century technology. But in the meantime, the real challenge isn’t building the harness—manufacturers are very good at that.

Marcy’s Musings: Our Own March Madness
03/18/2026 | Marcy LaRont -- Column: Marcy's MusingsI spend a lot of time looking ahead, whether that's toward future technology, market needs, or even the future of my editorial calendar. The industry is looking ahead as well. Every year at APEX EXPO, for example, participants get a clearer look at where we’re headed over the next three to five years. In fact, as our March issue is published, we will be in the throes of another great show (our own version of March Madness).
