Presenters in the Aerospace & Defense Special Session at APEX EXPO 2026 made one message abundantly clear: Advanced packaging has moved from a supporting role to a primary system enabler, particularly in high-reliability markets where performance, longevity, and environmental resilience are non-negotiable. The March Technical Conference at APEX EXPO focused on advanced electronics for the first time this year, with two Special Sessions featuring a carefully curated selection of presentations examining how design priorities, material choices, and manufacturing strategies are evolving in response to these demands.

Powering the Future: When Material Choice Defines RF Performance

06/10/2026 | Brian Buyea -- Column: Powering the Future
In RF and microwave design, deciding on which materials to use determines whether your design merely works or truly performs. Yet, designers too often fall back on material selection that is familiar, available, or “good enough.” However, once you move into higher frequencies, higher power densities, and tighter performance tolerances, “good enough” becomes the very thing that holds your design back. That’s where ceramic substrates become a fundamentally different approach to solving RF challenges.
