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.

EIPC Presents Technical Snapshot Webinars
October 6, 2020 | EIPCEstimated reading time: 1 minute

During the Autumn of this year, EIPC will be organising three webinars which will be of particular interest to those involved with automotive, telecom and high-speed technology. We will have three well-known PCB industry speakers, each of whom has their own view on the technology challenges facing this industry.
These webinars will be held on Wednesdays October 14, November 18, and December 16.
They will last for some 45 minutes with each speaker taking 15 minutes for their presentations and then the webinar will be open for questions and comments from the participants. These webinars will be free to EIPC members and € 50 for non-members.
This first session will focus on automotive technology and some of the key factors driving the global Automotive Printed Circuit Board industry. They will look at how the whole supply chain of PCB manufacturing can be ready for that change which will need input on materials, processes, measurement systems, reliability, and environmental impact and are there some new technologies for PCB manufacturing which will support these new demands.
The webinar on 14th of October will start at 15.00 hrs.
Presentations
Lenora Clark from ESI Automotive
Her presentation topic: An exploration of advanced semiconductor packaging’s effect on automotive electronic hardware design and assembly. In the presentation there will be discussion and review on all aspects of the electronic build, starting with how increased performance influences the semiconductor packages, how that then affects design for PCB fabrication, and finally it considers the influence on materials for perfect assembly.
Alun Morgan from Ventec
His presentation topic: "Reliability needs to be designed-in from the lowest level." In the presentation you will hear about cutting-edge technology demands more care to ensure reliability and resilience.
Paul Waldner from Multiline
His presentation topic: "Multilayer Printed Circuit Requirements for the Automobile Industry in the Age of High Speed." In the presentation you will hear some new ideas on multilayer pressing technology and how the registration can be improved to fulfil the demand for tighter tolerances
Registeration is free of charge to EIPC Members. The Non Member fee is € 50.-
