Learning With Leo: Where Reliability Actually Hides

08/05/2026 | Leo Lambert -- Column: Learning With Leo
In my many years of training, it’s funny to see what still surprises people. For example, they’re surprised that by the time the solder melts, most of what decides whether that joint survives has already happened before the iron and even before inspection. In fact, it’s even earlier than that. In my column last month, I argued that most soldering problems are really problems of interpretation, which leads to the materials themselves, and where reliability is won or lost. So, let’s talk about what we’re actually soldering today.

Defense Speak Interpreted: Will Defense Become a Totally New Supplier for Drone Electronics?

08/04/2026 | Dennis Fritz -- Column: Defense Speak Interpreted
When I read recently that Tobyhanna Army Depot would begin manufacturing up to one million circuit cards annually for military drones, I immediately wondered whether this opens a whole new chapter of volume electronics manufacturing within Defense. Historically, Defense has had access to some aspect of printed circuit production. My research confirmed what I already knew from my own experience as a subcontractor to the Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane in Indiana. Locations such as Robins Air Force Base, NSWC Crane, Picatinny Arsenal, and Redstone Arsenal may be involved in some form of prototyping and manufacturing circuit boards and assemblies, but it’s all on a limited scale and meant to support legacy aircraft and weapons.

It’s Only Common Sense: AI Is Accelerating the Electronics Industry

08/03/2026 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common Sense
Every time a new technology comes along, someone predicts the end of an industry. When automation arrived, people claimed manufacturing would disappear. When computers became commonplace, many believed they would replace engineers and eliminate countless jobs. Then came robotics, cloud computing, and digital transformation, each accompanied by warnings that people would soon become obsolete.
