Current IssueAdvanced Packaging and Stackup Design
This month, our expert contributors discuss the impact of advanced packaging on stackup design—from SI and DFM challenges through the variety of material tradeoffs that designers must contend with in HDI and UHDI.
Rules of Thumb
This month, we delve into rules of thumb—which ones work, which ones should be avoided. Rules of thumb are everywhere, but there may be hundreds of rules of thumb for PCB design. How do we separate the wheat from the chaff, so to speak?
Partial HDI
Our expert contributors provide a complete, detailed view of partial HDI this month. Most experienced PCB designers can start using this approach right away, but you need to know these tips, tricks and techniques first.

Interactive Reference Designs are Now Available from Trinamic on Ultra Librarian
February 23, 2021 | Ultra LibrarianEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Ultra Librarian®, the world's largest free cloud-based CAD library provider, has announced its partnership with Trinamic and Cadence to provide intelligent reference designs for download from Ultra Librarian. “These top reference designs from Trinamic in Cadence formats with CAD models from Ultra Librarian help design engineers jumpstart the design process,” said Manny Marcano, president and CEO of EMA. “This eliminates the tremendous number of hours typically spent recreating a design from a pdf and sourcing relevant parts.”
Reference designs are a valuable design tool for engineers to accelerate the design process and bring ideas to life faster. Instead of working from a pdf, engineers can download native CAD files in Cadence systems formats from Trinamic. There is no need to spend the time recreating a design from a pdf and sourcing relevant parts. With intelligent reference designs available in Ultra Librarian, designs can be downloaded along with all associated CAD models.
These designs have been built, tested, and authorized by the manufacturers and verified by Ultra Librarian to ensure accuracy of the design and associated models. Each download comes with a complete Bill of Materials ready for purchasing.
“Especially when it comes to designing applications, time is a precious resource as being first to market can make all the difference,” said Jonas P. Proeger, Director, Business Management at Trinamic Motion Control, now part of Maxim Integrated. “The performance of motor control applications depends on a good routing and component choice. With the offering of design files covering Trinamic's most popular evaluation boards, engineers can save precious resources and reduce time to market without compromising on quality.”

Effects of Advanced Packaging and Stackup Design
12/26/2024 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamKris Moyer teaches several PCB design classes for IPC and Sacramento State, including advanced PCB design. His advanced design classes take on some really interesting topics, including the impact of a designer’s choice of advanced packaging upon the design of the layer stackup. Kris shares his thoughts on the relationship between packaging and stackup, what PCB designers need to know, and why he believes, “The rules we used to live by are no longer valid.”
Beyond Design: AI-driven Inverse Stackup Optimization
12/26/2024 | Barry Olney -- Column: Beyond DesignArtificial intelligence (AI) is transforming how we conceptualize and design everything from satellites to PCBs. Traditionally, stackup planning is a manual process that can be multifaceted and relies heavily on the designer's expertise. Despite having best practices and various field solvers to optimize parameters, stackup planning remains challenging for complex designs with advanced packaging, several layers, multiple power pours, and controlled impedance requirements.
Spotlight on PEDC: Filbert Arzola
