Current IssueDesigning Through the Noise
Our experts discuss the constantly evolving world of RF design, including the many tradeoffs, material considerations, and design tips and techniques that designers and design engineers need to know to succeed in this high-frequency realm.
Learning to Speak ‘Fab’
Our expert contributors clear up many of the miscommunication problems between PCB designers and their fab and assembly stakeholders. As you will see, a little extra planning early in the design cycle can go a long way toward maintaining open lines of communication with the fab and assembly folks.
Training New Designers
Where will we find the next generation of PCB designers and design engineers? Once we locate them, how will we train and educate them? What will PCB designers of the future need to master to deal with tomorrow’s technology?

In 2023, Unimicron was awarded the "Taiwan Corporate Sustainability Award (TCSA)-“Taiwan's Top 100 Sustainability Companies” and “Platinum Award for Electronic Manufacturing (Category 1) Sustainability Report" by the Taiwan Institute for Sustainable Energy.
Unimicron deeply recognizes that sustainability is a necessary component of innovation, integrity and inclusion, and a driving force to achieve value creation for stakeholders. While pursuing profit and growth, we actively integrate the strengths of the supply chain, emphasizing Environmental Protection (E), Social Responsibility (S), and Corporate Governance (G) to achieve sustainability and disclose information to meet stakeholder expectations. Since the publication of the Sustainability Report in 2011, Unimicron has been recognized by the Taiwan Corporate Sustainability Awards for 12 consecutive years. In the 16th Annual TCSAs this year, Unimicron won the “Taiwan's Top 100 Sustainability Companies” and "Platinum Award in the Electronic Information Manufacturing Industry Category 1", demonstrating Unimicron's long-term achievements in ESG and receiving recognition.
In recent years, The Company has been recognized by the outside world and has been selected as a constituent of the MSCI Taiwan Index, the FTSE4Good TIP Taiwan ESG Index, TWSE Corporate Governance 100 Index, the TIP Taiwan Environmental Sustainability 50 Index, and the FTSE TWSE Taiwan 50 Index, etc.
To pursue the goals of stable power, diversified power sources, and energy saving and carbon reduction, the Company’s Board of Directors resolved in December 2022 to establish a new innovative energy "hydrogen fuel cell," and it is expected to complete the installation by 2026, with an investment of over NT$4 billion to build a total power generation capacity of 10MW towards the goal of "carbon neutrality by 2050."
Unimicron have formulated a Responsibility Policy with “Planet, People, and Performance” as the three pillars, along with seven commitments. Also, gradually implement the corporate vision of a world-class, high-tech Company with high benefits, high quality, high productivity, and an emphasis on innovative service.
