Current IssueThe Designer of the Future
Our expert contributors peer into their crystal balls and offer their thoughts on the designers and design engineers of tomorrow, and what their jobs will look like.
Advanced Packaging and Stackup Design
This month, our expert contributors discuss the impact of advanced packaging on stackup design—from SI and DFM challenges through the variety of material tradeoffs that designers must contend with in HDI and UHDI.
Rules of Thumb
This month, we delve into rules of thumb—which ones work, which ones should be avoided. Rules of thumb are everywhere, but there may be hundreds of rules of thumb for PCB design. How do we separate the wheat from the chaff, so to speak?

Mycronic Receives $6-8 Million SLX Mask Writer Order
December 26, 2024 | MycronicEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Mycronic AB has received an order for an SLX mask writer from an existing customer in Asia. The order value is in the range of $6 to $8 million. Delivery of the system is planned for the first quarter of 2026.
The SLX laser mask writer meets rising demand for photomasks for the semiconductor industry and a future need for replacement and modernization. Photomasks manufactured by laser mask writers are of high importance and account for a majority of all photomasks produced for semiconductor manufacturing. SLX is a modern and energy efficient mask writer based on the same technology as Mycronic’s mask writers for displays.
“With more than 60 received orders since the launch in October 2019, SLX continues gaining market presence. The modern SLX platform’s performance, productivity and reliability have paved the way for its success in the market”, says Charlott Samuelsson, Sr VP Pattern Generators at Mycronic.
Mycronic’s Pattern Generators division provides mask writers and metrology systems for display manufacturing and production of semiconductors.
