AT&S Brings High-Tech to the Museumsquartier
May 6, 2024 | AT&SEstimated reading time: 1 minute
AT&S, as a “MQ goes Green” partner, has prepared special highlights for the occasion: Visitors aged eight and above can embark on an interactive journey through the fascinating world of microelectronics. They will discover what happens inside a smartphone, experience what it is like to work in a cleanroom, and observe tiny electronic components under a microscope at the AT&S stations.
Using VR glasses, visitors can virtually explore the inner workings of a smartphone and witness the complexity of modern data processing systems. The electronic components used must be incredibly small to fit into our pockets, much thinner than a human hair. Visitors can see these otherwise invisible structures on the high-tech components through a powerful microscope. Achieving such fine circuitry requires precise and clean work from microelectronics manufacturers. AT&S experts at the Museumsquartier will explain what this means for workers: many products can only be manufactured in cleanrooms that are practically dust-free. Visitors to the AT&S stations can get a sense of working in this highly purified environment by donning real cleanroom suits and learning all about one of the cleanest production facilities in the world, currently being completed by AT&S in Leoben.
Unforgettable impressions and lasting memories
To ensure that visitors take home not only beautiful memories and new knowledge, they are invited to create individual souvenirs from electronic components at the AT&S booth. Together with the AT&S team, they can color circuit board cities and create jewelry from printed circuit boards. Our on-site experts look forward to exciting questions, enthusiastic creators, and amazed faces. In addition to AT&S’s interactive microelectronics show, visitors to the “KinderKulturParcours” throughout the Museumsquartier can explore many other interesting offerings, from museum exhibitions to various games and culinary delights in the gastronomy establishments.
AT&S wishes all children and their accompanying adults a lot of fun exploring the colorful world of the Museumsquartier.

Mapping the EV Landscape: Markets, Platforms, and Powertrains
10/28/2025 | Stanton Rak, SF Rak Companye-Mobility is the defining transformation of 21st-century transportation. As legacy OEMs, startups, and governments race to electrify vehicle fleets, the landscape of e-Mobility is expanding into previously unimaginable territory. But with innovation comes complexity, and with complexity, a need for systems that are not only high-performing but also reliably engineered for the long haul. Understanding the diversity and scale of the EV marketplace is essential to grasping the reliability challenges ahead. From compact urban commuters to heavy-duty trucks and city buses, each category of EV presents distinct performance demands and environmental challenges that shape both the design of its electronics and the manufacturing processes behind them.
China Plus One: Vietnam and Thailand Manufacturing Solutions
10/28/2025 | Marcy LaRont, PCB007 MagazineAs U.S. electronics manufacturing companies continue to weigh the “China Plus One” solution as they strategize how best to mitigate the ever-increasing pressures and costs of manufacturing in China, several of these global markets continue to see significant growth in their electronics sectors. Of course, India is among them and was the focus of SMT007 last month. Also among these burgeoning markets are Thailand and Vietnam. One has infrastructure and a more established history of success in manufacturing. The other has a much larger number of eager, young workers. In this article, I break down the pros and cons of each market, including a look at U.S. tariffs and how each country is addressing a significant skilled labor gap to support their electronics manufacturing goals.
Elementary, Mr. Watson: Heat—The Hidden Villain of Power Electronics
10/28/2025 | John Watson -- Column: Elementary, Mr. WatsonIf electricity were a group of college students, then power electronics and the PCB designers who dive into it would insist on driving the car on every road trip because they know the car inside and out—they’re the students with jumper cables in the trunk, a tire pressure gauge in the glove box, and snacks stashed under the seat. While the others argue over playlists and directions, power electronics is busy ensuring the alternator doesn’t fry, the headlights don’t dim, and everyone reaches the destination with fuel still in the tank.
