New iNEMI Project on High Density Interconnect Socket Warpage Prediction
December 14, 2022 | iNEMIEstimated reading time: 1 minute
High density interconnect sockets are becoming larger, which creates challenges for socket warpage simulation and can impact SMT assembly yield and reliability. Expedited computation that maintains the required level of accuracy is needed to shorten socket design cycles.
Phase 1 of iNEMI’s High Density Interconnect Socket Warpage Prediction and Characterization project established an analysis and validation framework for socket development, conducted simulation experiments, and initially investigated the impact of socket design, fiber filled material properties and molding process conditions on socket warpage.
Phase 2 will focus on improving socket warpage simulation accuracy and speed, further investigating the impact of molding and design on socket warpage, and will ultimately establish guidelines for dynamic socket warpage measurement and prediction. If you are involved in socket design and development, board assembly and/or reliability, this project will be of interest to you. Please join us to learn more on January 5 or 6. The deadline to sign up for the project is February 17, 2023.

SMTA UHDI Symposium 2025, Part 1: Challenges and Solutions
01/28/2025 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007SMTA hosted its second annual Ultra High Density Interconnect Symposium, a conference on cutting-edge PCB technology, on Jan. 23, 2025, at the Peoria Sports Complex in Arizona. A highly pro-business state with a special affection for the tech sector, Arizona is home to the biggest Intel semiconductor fab in the United States and the new TSMC chip fab. With an intimate group of approximately 50 attendees, the SMTA event offered a great forum for learning, interactive discussion, and networking.
EDA Tools and the Designer of the Future
01/28/2025 | Andy Shaughnessy, Design007 MagazineWe’re seeing new, young technologists moving into the PCB design and design engineering segment, and it’s just in time; many veteran designers are headed to retirement. At the same time, there have been various recent advances in EDA tools. What will the PCB designer’s job—and the designer’s software tools—look like in the next five years? Bob Potock, vice president of marketing for Zuken USA, weighs in on the PCB designers of tomorrow, and the EDA tools that will take them into an evermore complex future.
