Ucamco Releases New Schema for Gerber Job Files
September 3, 2020 | UcamcoEstimated reading time: Less than a minute

Ucamco has released a new Gerber Job Format specification. It includes a schema that provides very useful support for Gerber Job Format software developers.
Purpose
The schema provides a precise definition of what can and cannot be inside a Gerber Job File. It can be used programmatically to check a Gerber Job File for errors.
Created for developers
It’s mostly intended for use by developers who want to read or write Gerber Job Files in their system.
How it works
Any JSON schema reader that can parse a draft-07 schema can be used to read it and then further used to check Gerber Job Files against it for errors.
The schema can be found here and the full specification can be found here.
For further information, please contact: gerber@ucamco.com.

Happy’s Tech Talk #38: Novel Metallization for UHDI
05/07/2025 | Happy Holden -- Column: Happy’s Tech TalkI have been involved in high-density electronics substrates since 1970 when I joined Hewlett-Packard’s RF semiconductor group after college. Figure 1 shows the difference between trace/space lithography for substrates and silicon starting in 1970. My projects involved sapphire circuits for RF devices, but the figure displays the state of PCBs and integrated CMOS circuits and their packaging, not discreet RF devices. Even then, semiconductors were 50X higher density.
