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.

National Instruments App Note Demos EM Verification of Complex PCBs
January 29, 2019 | National InstrumentsEstimated reading time: 1 minute
A new NI AWR software application note presents an example highlighting the enhanced PCB import wizard within the NI AWR Design Environment platform. The wizard simplifies and accelerates electromagnetic (EM) analysis of complex PCBs by enabling designers to isolate and characterize critical traces within complex multi-layer configurations in order to streamline EM verification.
The “EM Verification of Complex Board Structures Streamlined With PCB Import Wizard” application note is available by clicking here.

Beyond the Board: How a Diminished Supplier Base Affects Complex PCB Manufacturing Readiness in Defense
04/14/2026 | Jesse Vaughan -- Column: Beyond the BoardAs mil/aero electronics push toward higher density, tighter tolerances, and more complex constructions, another trend has unfolded in parallel. It receives far less attention but carries equal consequence: A significant reduction in the number of fabricators that can support complex PCB manufacturing.
Ensuring the Next Generation of U.S. Weapons Has Homegrown Electronics
03/31/2026 | David Schild, PCBAAThe U.S. has in the works several new weapons to counter emerging enemy threats. These include new warships, fighter aircraft, bombers, submarines, drones and a network of air defenses to defend the entire U.S. against missile and air attacks. And yet the U.S. will be challenged to produce key electronics within these systems known as printed circuit boards (PCBs), which are primarily sourced domestically. While the U.S. government has played a key role in helping to revive the domestic semiconductor industry, with the exception of some funding through the Defense Product Act it has largely ignored domestic production of PCBs.
