Current IssueRules of Thumb
This month, we delve into rules of thumb—which ones work, which ones should be avoided. Rules of thumb are everywhere, but there may be hundreds of rules of thumb for PCB design. How do we separate the wheat from the chaff, so to speak?
Partial HDI
Our expert contributors provide a complete, detailed view of partial HDI this month. Most experienced PCB designers can start using this approach right away, but you need to know these tips, tricks and techniques first.
Silicon to Systems: From Soup to Nuts
This month, we asked our expert contributors to weigh in on silicon to systems—what it means to PCB designers and design engineers, EDA companies, and the rest of the PCB supply chain... from soup to nuts.

Irridian Invests in New Printed Circuit Board Design Software Suites
August 8, 2018 | Hindley CircuitsEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Recently acquired by Hindley Circuits, Irridian Industrial Electronics, has invested in introducing state-of-the-art PCB design software to significantly enhance the accuracy and speed of its design services.
The new Cadstar and Altium design software platforms have modern and interactive user interfaces. The cutting-edge design software platforms will allow us to design complex multilayered printed circuit boards while also incorporating high speed design requirements.
Both the Cadstar and Altium platforms allow all aspects of the PCB design cycle to be addressed – right from schematic capture and PCB layout through to documentation and simulation – meaning that our PCB designers can be seamlessly connected to all elements of the design process. We have already seen the benefits of this thanks to a rapid increase of speed and accuracy across the whole process.
We have been greatly impressed by our existing customers interest in Irridians design services and look forward to sharing with them the benefits that the new software will bring to our service offering. We are currently looking to hire an additional experienced PCB Designer in the very near future

Rules of Thumb for PCB Layout
11/21/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, I-Connect007The dictionary defines a “rule of thumb” as “a broadly accurate guide or principle, based on experience or practice rather than theory.” Rules of thumb are often the foundation of a PCB designer’s thought process when tackling a layout. Ultimately, a product spec or design guideline will provide the detailed design guidance, but rules of thumb can help to provide the general guidance that will help to streamline the layout process and avoid design or manufacturing issues.

Flexible Thinking: Rules of Thumb: A Word to the Wise
11/20/2024 | Joe Fjelstad -- Column: Flexible ThinkingIn the early days of electronics manufacturing—especially with PCBs—there were no rules. Engineers, scientists, and technicians largely felt their way around in the dark, making things up as they went along. There was a great deal of innovation, guessing, and testing to make sure that early guidelines and estimates were correct by testing them. Still, they frequently made mistakes.
