Signal Integrity & Metallization
Signal integrity and additive manufacturing, particularly metallization, are hot topics in PCB design and fabrication. PCB layouts are carefully engineered to achieve specific electrical and power performance targets.
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.

Register Now for Mentor’s August 30 Panelization Webinar
August 10, 2018 | Mentor, a Siemens businessEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Register now for Mentor’s free monthly Advanced Technology Webinar Series, to be held August 30, 2018. The topic is Panelization with the Xpedition Flow.
Xpedition Fablink simplifies the process of creating a panel design. Driven by the PCB, users can keep panel data up to date and easily place multiple PCBs in one panel if necessary. Panel-level DRC checks ensure that panels are correct and ready to manufacture.
The presenter is Kyle Lake of Oasis Sales, formerly a corporate marketing engineer with Mentor.
What Attendees Will Learn
- Easily create a panel design using Xpedition FabLink from your PCB
- Import and array one, or multiple PCBs into your panel
- Quickly generate manufacturing documents
- Run panel-level DRC checks
Who Should Attend
- Hardware engineers
- PCB designers
Sign up now for this free webinar delivered by Oasis Sales and Trilogic.

Siemens Expands EDA Software Access Through EuroCDP Project
05/14/2026 | SiemensSiemens has become the first software provider to sign a strategic framework agreement with the European Chips Joint Undertaking (Chips JU) which aims to bolster Europe's semiconductor industry by fostering collaboration between the EU, member states and the private sector, through the European Chips Design Platform (EuroCDP) project.
Rethinking Stackup, Materials, and Tolerances in Modern Designs
05/14/2026 | Kristin Moyer, Global Electronics AssociationThe simple rectangular rigid PCB is becoming increasingly infrequent. This reality necessitates designing with concepts well outside traditional rigid PCB methodologies. For example, the designer of wearable electronics may need to implement conductive fibers integrated into the textile material. Heads-up displays, like those in VR/AR headsets and glasses, require transparent circuitry etched into the display glass. The process of designing without a rule book usually starts with something other than the traditional board design process.

Road to Reliability: Engineering High Uptime EV Charging Infrastructure
05/13/2026 | Stanton Rak, SF Rak CompanyThe transition to EVs is no longer constrained solely by vehicle capability. Instead, it is increasingly defined by a simpler, but more unforgiving question: Will the charger work when I arrive? This high uptime does not happen by accident. As EV technology has matured, limitations in battery range, power electronics, and thermal management are no longer the primary barriers to adoption.
