Current IssueThe 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?
Solder Printing
In this issue, we turn a discerning eye to solder paste printing. As apertures shrink, and the requirement for multiple thicknesses of paste on the same board becomes more commonplace, consistently and accurately applying paste becomes ever more challenging.

September 2019 Issue of PCB007 Magazine Available Now
September 17, 2019 | I-Connect007Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
In this month's issue of PCB007 Magazine, we look into why the flag standard became the symbol of the “rule of law” and a rallying point. It’s no small wonder, then, that the term was expanded to include other contracts that function as the rule of law by mutual agreement. The standards (documents) we discuss in this issue could be considered rallying points for those who support the intent of the standard and serve as our rule of law.
This September 2019 issue of PCB007 Magazine is now on the virtual newsstand, and available for delivery in your e-mailbox each month.

Elementary, Mr. Watson A Designer's Dilemma—Metric or Imperial Units?
11/07/2024 | John Watson -- Column: Elementary, Mr. WatsonIn the early 1800s, as trains began to spread across the United States, different companies built their tracks in ways that made sense to them. They chose their track widths (gauges) with no set standard. Some tracks were about four feet wide, with others at five or even six feet. Each company thought their choice was best, but this led to a big problem: Trains from one track couldn't run on another if the gauges didn't match. Often, trains had to stop at the state line for all their goods and passengers to switch trains, which cost extra time and money.
