August 18, 2015 | PRNewswireEstimated reading time: 2 minutes

API Technologies Corp., a leading provider of high performance RF, microwave, millimeterwave, power, and security solutions, today announced that the Company will exhibit at Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEI 2015) exhibition from 15-18 September at London's ExCeL Exhibition Centre. On display will be the Company's product offerings for AESA radar, space, security, and a broad array of defence applications.
Show highlights include:
Subsystem Level Solutions for AESA Radar Applications: Featured products will include the Company's Active Antenna Array Unit (AAAU) and Quad Transmit Receive Module (QTRM) products. The flexible configurations of the AAAU and integral QTRMs support a wide range of applications including naval, air, and ground-based radar. The products are field upgradable and designed to improve the accuracy and serviceability of AESA radar platforms. API Technologies will also preview its 2-D Array system. Built on a flexible technology platform, this lightweight, compact unit is designed to ease the challenges associated with phased-array radar development in a variety of next-generation radar applications.
Opto-electrical Media Converter Products: API will demonstrate its new line of media converter products at DSEi. The media converters offer a UK-made, low-to-high speed data communications solution specifically developed for harsh environments, including military and commercial avionics, subsea communications, and military vehicle platforms. Packaged in an EMI 38999 connector, the converters provide improved security due to non electromagnetic signature, as well as support weight reduction and high speed communications in new aircraft and vehicles. Designed to be an intrinsically safe alternative to copper-based electrical cables, the converters also offer a desirable and easy-to-install retrofit solution.
Encryption & Secure Mobile Communication Products: The Company will also debut the SST™ Secure Data Hub, a mobile encryption device, which supports up to four devices, including tablets and laptops. The Secure Data Hub is designed to facilitate secure communications and is ideal for mobile office settings. Other products on display will include the SST™ Secure Venue Tablet and SST™ TEMPEST and ruggedised systems.
"We are proud to showcase our comprehensive selection of RF/microwave, microelectronics, and security products designed and manufactured in the UK. Since API's European debut at DSEI 2013, the Company has emerged as a leader in electronic products in support of a broad range of defence, aviation, space, and security applications. We see this event as an opportunity to continue and broaden our interaction with the wider European professional, technical, and security communities," said Matthew Richards, Senior Vice President & Managing Director, RF/Microwave and Microelectronics (RF2M-UK) and Secure Systems & Information Assurance (SSIA).

The Evolution of Picosecond Laser Drilling
06/19/2025 | Marcy LaRont, PCB007 MagazineIs it hard to imagine a single laser pulse reduced not only from nanoseconds to picoseconds in its pulse duration, but even to femtoseconds? Well, buckle up because it seems we are there. In this interview, Dr. Stefan Rung, technical director of laser machines at Schmoll Maschinen GmbH, traces the technology trajectory of the laser drill from the CO2 laser to cutting-edge picosecond and hybrid laser drilling systems, highlighting the benefits and limitations of each method, and demonstrating how laser innovations are shaping the future of PCB fabrication.

Preventing Surface Prep Defects and Ensuring Reliability
06/10/2025 | Marcy LaRont, PCB007 MagazineIn printed circuit board (PCB) fabrication, surface preparation is a critical process that ensures strong adhesion, reliable plating, and long-term product performance. Without proper surface treatment, manufacturers may encounter defects such as delamination, poor solder mask adhesion, and plating failures. This article examines key surface preparation techniques, common defects resulting from improper processes, and real-world case studies that illustrate best practices.
RF PCB Design Tips and Tricks
05/08/2025 | Cherie Litson, EPTAC MIT CID/CID+There are many great books, videos, and information online about designing PCBs for RF circuits. A few of my favorite RF sources are Hans Rosenberg, Stephen Chavez, and Rick Hartley, but there are many more. These PCB design engineers have a very good perspective on what it takes to take an RF design from schematic concept to PCB layout.
