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.

Ibiden Invests in New Facilities to Boost IC Substrate Capacities
November 6, 2018 | Stephen Las Marias, I-Connect007Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Japan-based PCB maker Ibiden Co. Ltd is investing around 70 billion yen ($617.45 million) between 2019 and 2021 in new production facilities to increase its production capacity for IC substrates by 50%. The planned expansion is in line with the growing semiconductor demand driven by new markets such as the internet of things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI), as well as automotive electronics devices and high-speed and high-capacity servers.
The new facilities will be located at Ibiden's Second Building at the Ogaki Central Plant, and at the Ogaki Plant, in Ogaki City, Gifu Prefecture. The facilities are expected to come online in 2019, and start commercial production in 2020.
