Beyond the Rulebook
What happens when the rule book is no longer useful, or worse, was never written in the first place? In today’s fast-moving electronics landscape, we’re increasingly asked to design and build what has no precedent, no proven path, and no tidy checklist to follow. This is where “Design for Invention” begins.
March Madness
From the growing role of AI in design tools to the challenge of managing cumulative tolerances, these articles in this issue examine the technical details, design choices, and manufacturing considerations that determine whether a board works as intended.
Looking Forward to APEX EXPO 2026
I-Connect007 Magazine previews APEX EXPO 2026, covering everything from the show floor to the technical conference. For PCB designers, we move past the dreaded auto-router and spotlight AI design tools that actually matter.

American Standard Circuits to Exhibit at IMS 2025
June 12, 2025 | American Standard CircuitsEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Anaya Vardya, President and CEO of American Standard Circuits & ASC Sunstone Circuits, announced that his companies will exhibit at the IEEE International Microwave Symposium (IMS 2025), taking place June 15-20, 2025, at San Francisco’s Moscone Center.
“IMS is the microwave industry’s premier gathering. It gives us the perfect platform to sit down face-to-face with designers, engineers, and sourcing professionals,” Mr. Vardya said. “Our experts will be on hand to discuss the latest breakthroughs in Ultra-HDI miniaturization, Laminated Liquid-Crystal-Polymer (LCP) RF modules, and advanced flex and rigid-flex interconnect solutions—technologies that are redefining size, weight, and performance for high-frequency systems.
Visitors to the American standard booth (#2336) can:
- Review live samples featuring 10 µm lines/spaces and stacked microvias for next-gen Ultra-HDI layouts
- Explore licensed multilayer LCP constructions that deliver exceptionally low loss up to millimeter-wave frequencies
- Discuss flex and long-format rigid-flex builds—including boards up to 30 inches—with IPC-verified reliability
- Schedule in-depth design reviews or factory tours with ASC’s RF/microwave and UHDI engineering teams
Show attendees can meet the ASC team on the show floor in Booth 2336.

Flexible Thinking: Designing Flex Circuits for Dynamic Reliability
04/09/2026 | Joe Fjelstad -- Column: Flexible ThinkingFlex circuits flex. No surprises there. However, they are also very commonly designed into products because they are thin and offer consistent thickness and dielectric properties, attributes highly prized by present-day product designers of personal electronics. This would include smartphones and, increasingly, wearable electronics for medical monitoring and even fashion.
