PCB Layout Rules of Thumb for Consideration
11/25/2024 | Patrick Davis, Cadence Design SystemsJust because a “rule of thumb” is usually based on experience instead of precise facts doesn’t negate its value. For instance, when I told my kids that a good rule of thumb was not to back-talk to their mother, they discovered very quickly how accurate my advice was once they crossed that line. There are a lot of rules of thumb that we rely on daily, including those that apply to PCB design.

American Made Advocacy: The Administration Changed, but Our Industry’s Needs Remain
11/26/2024 | Shane Whiteside -- Column: American Made AdvocacyThe beginning of the holiday season in Washington, D.C., this year also signals the changes that come with a new administration. Here are my projections about the effect on our industry. There will be a lot of noise in Washington when a new president occupies the White House and new members of Congress arrive on the scene. It is every member’s job to remind them all that “chips don’t float” and that there is more work to be done to create a secure and resilient supply chain for the microelectronics we depend on.
I-Connect007 Editor’s Choice: Five Must-Reads for the Week
11/22/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, I-Connect007In this week’s roundup, I’m highlighting a variety of articles. We have an interview with Jess Hollenbaugh, a recent graduate working for Polar Instruments. We also have an interview with IPC’s Matt Kelly and Devan Iyer, whose white paper may provide a way forward for companies dealing with complex advanced packages. Our newest columnist Tom Yang describes the U.S. PCB industry from the point of view of a technologist from another country, and Dan Beaulieu has a review of Malcolm Gladwell’s follow-up to The Tipping Point. Finally, we have my review of PCB Carolina, a one-day tabletop show that keeps expanding, much like my waistline after eating their catered food. Enjoy!
