Rethinking Stackup, Materials, and Tolerances in Modern Designs
05/14/2026 | Kristin Moyer, Global Electronics AssociationThe simple rectangular rigid PCB is becoming increasingly infrequent. This reality necessitates designing with concepts well outside traditional rigid PCB methodologies. For example, the designer of wearable electronics may need to implement conductive fibers integrated into the textile material. Heads-up displays, like those in VR/AR headsets and glasses, require transparent circuitry etched into the display glass. The process of designing without a rule book usually starts with something other than the traditional board design process.
Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Precision Milling of Underfilled SMT Components
05/13/2026 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileUnderfill is a polymeric material used to fill the gap between a printed circuit board and the underside of surface-mount area-array packages such as BGA, QFP, and QFN devices, thereby surrounding and protecting the solder interconnections. This material increases the component's reliability when subjected to mechanical impacts and shocks by distributing forces.

Connect the Dots: Designing for the Future of Manufacturing Reality—Surface Finish
05/07/2026 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsWhen designing the complex boards that many electronic devices require to operate, designers should consider manufacturability at every step. This is my last article focused on designing for the always-evolving manufacturing reality. Choosing the right surface finish has always been important. If you are creating intricate designs with a wide variety of components, like for an ultra-high density interconnect (UHDI) board, surface finish is a critical last step.
PCBAA, AAM Take on the Fight to Rebuild U.S. Manufacturing in New Documentary
