March 30, 2018 | Matrix ElectronicsEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
On March 9, the members of Matrix lost a dear friend, Jim Kenney. Jim was dedicated and hardworking, meticulous in every task he undertook. Jim had a long history in the PCB Industry and was well known throughout the country and especially in the Western US. Jim had previously worked for CIS (Circuit Image Systems) and more recently with Matrix USA for the past five years. He was instrumental in launching Matrix’s new line of Hakuto Film Lamination products.
Jim passed at home in Oregon with his wife, Debra, and family. He leaves behind six children and nine grandchildren.
Jim will be sorely missed and remembered by everyone who knew him for his good nature, honesty and persistent dedication.

Effects of Advanced Packaging and Stackup Design
12/26/2024 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamKris Moyer teaches several PCB design classes for IPC and Sacramento State, including advanced PCB design. His advanced design classes take on some really interesting topics, including the impact of a designer’s choice of advanced packaging upon the design of the layer stackup. Kris shares his thoughts on the relationship between packaging and stackup, what PCB designers need to know, and why he believes, “The rules we used to live by are no longer valid.”
Partial HDI: A Complete Solution
10/10/2024 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamWe recently spoke with IPC instructor Kris Moyer about partial HDI, a process that’s recently been growing in popularity. Partial HDI allows designers to escape route out from tight-pitch BGAs on one layer, where a mechanically drilled plated through-hole is not an option, while avoiding the complexity and expense of sequential lamination cycles. As Kris explains, this process doesn’t add much to the cost, and it’s fairly straightforward. But there are some competing signal integrity and fabrication requirements to contend with. We asked Kris to walk us through this process.
