The real cost to manufacture a PCB encompasses everything that goes into making the product: the materials and other value-added supplies, machine and personnel costs, and most importantly, your quality. A hard look at real costs seems wholly appropriate.
Alternate Metallization Processes
Traditional electroless copper and electroless copper immersion gold have been primary PCB plating methods for decades. But alternative plating metals and processes have been introduced over the past few years as miniaturization and advanced packaging continue to develop.

Robert Plant could have been talking about trade shows when he sang, “It’s been a long time since I did the stroll.” When was the last time you did the stroll down the aisles of a trade show?
So, we’re all excited about the upcoming IPC APEX EXPO 2022 at the San Diego Convention Center. It's now less than six weeks away and we're looking forward to joining you all to celebrate the return of trade shows to our industry.
In the December issue of PCB007 Magazine, we provide you with a preview of what you can expect in San Diego. We have interviews with fabricators and suppliers who are exhibiting and presenting classes at IPC APEX EXPO. IPC show managers discuss the events planned for this year’s event, and we share a variety of conversations with those involved in IPC’s STEM program, including a local high school teacher whose students are now planning engineering careers after being inspired by last year’s STEM event.

Enjoy the Journey: PCB Design Instructor Kris Moyer on His Sustainable Lifestyle
11/19/2024 | Michelle Te, IPC CommunityWhen I contacted IPC design instructor Kris Moyer to discuss his sustainable lifestyle, he responded to my text with a call. "I'm calling you from about 8,000 feet, sitting at the foot of Mammoth Lakes," he told me. “My friends and I are about to get in the pool for the afternoon." Kris can do this because he actually lives full-time in his travel-trailer at this campground. He's now a permanent camper, taking him anywhere the winds blow—and where there's strong internet service—so he can teach his PCB design classes, offer expert interviews, and live off the land.
