Current IssueIn Pursuit of Perfection: Defect Reduction
For bare PCB board fabrication, defect reduction is a critical aspect of a company's bottom line profitability. In this issue, we examine how imaging, etching, and plating processes can provide information and insight into reducing defects and increasing yields.
Voices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.

Prototron Circuits Now Offering a Complete PCB Global Solution
February 26, 2018 | Prototron CircuitsEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Dave Ryder, president of Prototron Circuits of Redmond, Washington and Tucson, Arizona, has announced that his company will now be offering complete global sourcing for all types of printed circuit boards.
Already known as one of North America’s leading providers of reliable printed circuit board prototype and quick-turn services, Prototron’s addition of complete PCB global solutions will now allow them to provide their customer with a full menu of technologies and services including both flex and rigid-flex, HDI/microvia boards, and competitive mid to large volume orders as well as “womb to tomb” full-life PCB services.
Commenting on these expanded service, Ryder said, “For several years now our customers have been asking us for extended options. They told us they love our customer service, consistent on-time delivery, high quality, and extreme attention to detail, but they still wanted more. We have always been a customer-focused company so when they asked for ITAR, we complied; when they asked for Mil-PRF-31032, we complied; and we did the same again when they asked for AS9100. But when our customers started asking for things like flex, rigid flex, and HDI/microvia boards as well as more competitive volume pricing, we realized that to keep them satisfied we were going to have to extend our offerings beyond the brick and mortar of our two facilities. That’s when we developed our complete global sourcing solution. We qualified some of the best offshore partners we could find. We developed our new sales strategy. We did some calibration quotes and orders to make sure that we would be fully prepared when we went “prime time,” so to speak, which is what we are doing at this time. So, we are pleased to announce that with the same fine service, quality, delivery and attention for detail that our customers have grown to rely upon, we are now adding a complete global solution to meet all your needs, both today and in the future.”

It’s Only Common Sense: Price—Is That All You’ve Got?
05/26/2025 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common SenseAll I hear about is price, and I have to ask: Is that all you have? Do you think there’s no difference between what you and your competitor do, except for price? I understand it’s tempting to focus on price as a primary selling point, but it’s not the most important thing customers care about. Selling on price alone is unsustainable and can undermine your brand and profitability in the long run. The key to long-term success is in selling value.
