Unitech, Dynamic Doing Well With Multiple Niche PCB Applications
October 14, 2019 | DigitimesEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Taiwan-based PCB makers Unitech and Dynamic Electronics have outperformed other local second-tier peers, as their efforts in developing diverse niche applications are paying off significantly.
Unitech, now in the supply chain of rigid-flex boards for AirPods, has seen its revenues grow steadily since the launch of AirPods 2 in early 2019. The company sees AirPods-use boards contribute 30-40% of its revenues. The company has also started shipments of battery boards for iPhone 11 series and will deliver boards for auto-use camera lens and radar modules starting in early 2020.
Dynamic has enjoyed steady increases in demand for HDI boards from three major application segments: auto-use camera and radar modules as well as LiDAR and entertainment systems, optoelectronics-use HDI for tablets, and memory module boards for use at datacenters.

Fresh PCB Concepts: The Critical Nature of Copper Thickness on PCBs
10/31/2024 | Team NCAB -- Column: Fresh PCB ConceptsPCBs are the backbone of modern electronics and the copper layers within these boards serve as the primary pathways for electrical signals. When designing and manufacturing PCBs, copper thickness is one of the most critical factors and significantly affects the board’s performance and durability. The IPC-6012F specification, the industry standard for the performance and qualification of rigid PCBs, sets clear guidelines on copper thickness to ensure reliability in different environments and applications.
Dana on Data: Resurrecting IPC Class 1
10/01/2024 | Dana Korf -- Column: Dana on DataIPC specifications and guidelines have been the standard performance, quality, acceptance, and design basis for PCB designs for approximately two generations. They have proven to be conservative enough that PCBs far exceed their expected lifetimes in a multitude of environments. Requirements are continually adjusted to reflect improvements in materials and process capability that match the increasing component, interconnect, and cost reduction demands.
