The real cost to manufacture a PCB encompasses everything that goes into making the product: the materials and other value-added supplies, machine and personnel costs, and most importantly, your quality. A hard look at real costs seems wholly appropriate.
Alternate Metallization Processes
Traditional electroless copper and electroless copper immersion gold have been primary PCB plating methods for decades. But alternative plating metals and processes have been introduced over the past few years as miniaturization and advanced packaging continue to develop.
Technology Roadmaps

IPC Technical Education Focuses on Best Practices in Design
July 12, 2017 | IPCEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
IPC—The Association Connecting Electronics Industries will be holding a two-day, design-focused IPC professional development courses on July 26–27, 2017, in Chicago, Illinois.
Day 1 will focus on EMI control, including grounding, power distribution, and board stack-up, among others, and will be led by Rick Hartley. This workshop is all about up-front design. Getting the design right to prevent having to throw costly band-aids on the product to stop the hemorrhaging of electric and magnetic fields. The knowledge gained from this workshop can significantly reduce product development time and cost, as well as improve product performance.
The next day’s course will be on design challenges, including fine pitch BGA design, and best design practices to produce a more manufacturable board. To be given by Susy Webb, the first section of this two-in-one class utilizes illustrations and real-world examples to explore the complexities of using fine pitch BGAs in designs. The second section of this class discusses best practices that, when incorporated by the designer, will help make fabrication and assembly easier and therefore lower the time and cost needed for a quality board.
