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.

Averatek Corporation Launches the A-SAP 'Community of Interest'
March 4, 2021 | AveratekEstimated reading time: 1 minute

Averatek Corporation has launched the A-SAP™ Community of Interest. This web-based content platform was developed as a central resource for the industry: so that all members of the supply chain—from designers to end user—can exchange information and insights about the A-SAP™ leading-edge PCB fabrication process.
“The ability to form 15-micron feature sizes with Averatek A-SAP™ technology is proven,” said Tara Dunn, vice president of marketing and business development for Averatek. “Now we are building a community of experts who understand how to apply this benefit to PCB design and fabrication: to optimize the advantages of these tight feature sizes and reset the technology curve.”
“The electronics industry is at an inflection point,” said Haris Basit, CEO of Averatek. “The A-SAP™ process opens up high-density design opportunities, with RF and signal integrity benefits that were previously unavailable. Three commercial fabricators are implementing A-SAP™ technology now, and PCB designers can collaborate with these innovators to meet their customer needs. Next-generation design is here today.”
Averatek A-SAP™ is an advanced manufacturing process for printed circuit board fabrication, with trace and space widths as narrow as 15 microns. This process can dramatically reduce area, layer count and weight of electronics systems - as well as provide significant RF benefits. A-SAP™ can be easily integrated with traditional PCB manufacturing equipment and materials.
