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.

Additive Electronics TechXchange Program Announced
October 6, 2020 | SMTAEstimated reading time: Less than a minute

The SMTA announced speakers from major electronics manufacturers and academia will present research as part of the technical program of the Additive Electronics TechXchange on October 15, 2020. Participating organizations include Auburn University, Duke University, Intel Corporation, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, and NSWC Crane.
The Additive Electronics TechXchange examines the manufacturing and design processes enabling line width and space from .003" to 5 microns as well as other new advanced technologies intended to meet the ever-increasing challenges of smaller, lighter and more powerful electronic devices. This year the event organizers expect to dive deeper into market trends, usage and where additive fits within low, medium and high-volume production for this portion of manufacture where the electronics industry straddles the line between PCB and IC substrate.
Sponsoring companies include AGC Taconic, American Standard Circuits, Inc., Averatek Corporation, Calumet Electronics Corporation, FTG - Firan Technology Group, Insulectro, MacDermid Alpha Electronics Solutions, and SUSS MicroTec. The conference is supported by I-Connect007.
Registration is free for SMTA members and sponsorship opportunities are available. For full details and to register, visit www.smta.org/additive.
