Powering the Future: How Packaging Choices Make or Break Performance
03/11/2026 | Brian Buyea -- Column: Powering the FutureWhen we talk about reliability in electronics, we often focus on the system level: redundancy, fail-safes, or software resilience. But long before the system is assembled or even tested, reliability is considered in materials, metallization, and the packaging process itself. If the foundation isn’t built to survive the environment, no amount of clever design downstream will make up for it.
Driving Innovation: People Driving Precision in PCB Processes
02/03/2026 | Simon Khesin -- Column: Driving InnovationThe technology behind PCB production is both complex and fascinating. It represents a precise mix of different technologies and disciplines—mechanical, optical, and chemical—all working in concert. Yet, people are the most vital component in perfecting these solutions. I’d like to share how the specialized roles at Schmoll Maschinen GmbH in Germany contribute to the company’s commitment to excellence.
Beyond the Board: The Benefits of Early PCB Engagement in Aerospace and Defense Programs
02/03/2026 | Jesse Vaughan -- Column: Beyond the BoardAerospace and defense programs don’t operate on commercial timelines. Once a platform is qualified, it may remain in production, sustainment, or upgrade cycles for decades. Yet many of the most consequential decisions affecting that lifecycle are often made at the PCB design stage, and long before a program reaches production or even formal qualification.
Beyond the Board: Why More Defense Primes Are Moving Toward Rigid-flex for Lighter, More Reliable Systems
11/18/2025 | Jesse Vaughan -- Column: Beyond the BoardOver the past decade, the conversation around PCB innovation in aerospace and defense has often centered on high-density interconnects, advanced materials, and tighter design-to-fabrication collaboration. But the move toward rigid-flex is a quieter shift that has been gaining momentum, and it’s changing how primes and system integrators approach the physical architecture of mission-critical electronics.
