Current IssueVoices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.
It's Show Time!
In this month’s issue of PCB007 Magazine we reimagine the possibilities featuring stories all about IPC APEX EXPO 2025—covering what to look forward to, and what you don’t want to miss.

Disruption and Opportunity Ahead for Semiconductor, Generative Design, and Private LTE Markets
February 22, 2019 | ABI ResearchEstimated reading time: 1 minute
ABI Research, a market-foresight advisory firm providing strategic guidance on the most compelling transformative technologies, announced significant findings in the AI & Machine Learning, Industrial Solution, and Telco Digitization markets.
Moving AI Processing to the Edge Will Shake Up the Semiconductor Industry
Revenue from the sale of artificial intelligence (AI) chipsets for edge inference and inference training will grow at 65% and 137% respectively between 2018 and 2023, creating massive new potential revenue streams for chip vendors. “The biggest winners from the growth in edge AI are going to be those vendors that either own or are currently building intellectual properties for AI-related application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs),” said Jack Vernon, Industry Analyst at ABI Research.
Autodesk Takes Top Spot in ABI Research’s Generative Design Competitive Assessment
Ranked as the top generative design vendor, Autodesk scored highest in the overall category of Implementation and topped six of the twelve ranking criteria. “Autodesk emerged as the leader with innovative capabilities and integration of generative design tools within its Fusion 360 product,” said Pierce Owen, principal analyst at ABI Research.
Private LTE Will be a US$16.3 Billion Opportunity by 2025
By 2025, the private Long-Term Evolution (LTE) market comprising of healthcare, transport, and logistics, manufacturing, smart venues, smart cities, and oil and gas will be worth US$16.3 billion. “A new understanding of spectrum usage, spearheaded by the Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) activities in the United States, and increasing demand from industry verticals are the main drivers of private LTE,” said Pablo Tomasi, senior analyst at ABI Research.

RF PCB Design Tips and Tricks
05/08/2025 | Cherie Litson, EPTAC MIT CID/CID+There are many great books, videos, and information online about designing PCBs for RF circuits. A few of my favorite RF sources are Hans Rosenberg, Stephen Chavez, and Rick Hartley, but there are many more. These PCB design engineers have a very good perspective on what it takes to take an RF design from schematic concept to PCB layout.

The Right Blend: Mixed Wireless Technologies
05/08/2025 | Kirsten Zima, Siemens EDAA common trend recently is to employ as many radios as possible on a single PCB. With the increase of wireless standards and the downscaling of PCB size, it can be difficult to know what the most critical design parameters are to focus on. In this article, we’ll discuss the most important considerations to make when designing with mixed wireless technologies, such as Bluetooth, GPS, and Wi-Fi, on a single PCB. These considerations include antennas, frequencies, FCC compliance, shielding, and layout with and without transition vias.
