Current IssueSoldering Technologies
Soldering is the heartbeat of assembly, and new developments are taking place to match the rest of the innovation in electronics. There are tried-and-true technologies for soldering. But new challenges in packaging, materials, and sustainability may be putting this key step in flux.
The Rise of Data
Analytics is a given in this industry, but the threshold is changing. If you think you're too small to invest in analytics, you may need to reconsider. So how do you do analytics better? What are the new tools, and how do you get started?
Counterfeit Concerns
The distribution of counterfeit parts has become much more sophisticated in the past decade, and there's no reason to believe that trend is going to be stopping any time soon. What might crop up in the near future?

Koh Young to Show AI-based Inspection Solutions at IPC APEX EXPO 2019
December 20, 2018 | Koh Young TechnologyEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Koh Young Technology will show advanced artificial intelligence-based inspection solutions at the IPC APEX Expo during 29-31 January 2019. As ‘Your Partner for Smart Factory Realization,’ Koh Young will feature its new Zenith 2 AOI platform, which adapts the Koh Young artificial intelligence (AI) engine to simplify programming and extend inspection coverage.
The Zenith 2 combines Koh Young’s advanced vision algorithms with innovative side-view optics for SMT industry applications. The latest platform incorporates Koh Young’s side view inspection technology that expands component height measurement and further enhances defect identification capabilities. Zenith 2 can quickly detect and analyze defects across a wide range of components, including leadless chips, connectors, SOJs, and QFNs.
Additionally, the next-generation 3D AOI is more efficient than its predecessor with AI-powered features like Koh Young Auto Programming (KAP). The Auto Programming AI engine proposes the recommended inspection conditions based on 3D measured data, which not only simplifies inspection condition programming, but makes it faster. KAP reduces job preparation by up to 70 percent, which makes it an ideal solution for high-mix, low-volume applications.
Additionally, Koh Young will show how AI can be used to improve image quality. Restoring noisy images is an important processing step in many SMT applications, which allows accurate measurement and analysis. Koh Young’s latest AOI system presents a new quality-guided approach for denoising 3D images by improving height data quality with AI algorithms.
As the absolute leader in the SPI and AOI markets, Koh Young will display a broad sample of its latest developments, as well as participate in several show activities, including topical roundtable discussions and interviews on the smart factory and inspection process. If you cannot attend the show to visit Koh Young at booth 1908.

Are Our Stackup Rules No Longer Valid?
12/19/2024 | Cherie Litson, EPTAC MIT CID/CID+Are the stackup rules we used to follow no longer valid? It depends on what you’re designing. Electrical rules change depending on your circuit. Fabrication rules change depending on which fabricator you’re working with. Today, we just have more options, and sometimes, cost is a bigger rule than anything else. If you search online for information about layer stackups, trace widths, and hole sizes in PCBs, you’ll find a variety of resources.
