Beyond the Rulebook
What happens when the rule book is no longer useful, or worse, was never written in the first place? In today’s fast-moving electronics landscape, we’re increasingly asked to design and build what has no precedent, no proven path, and no tidy checklist to follow. This is where “Design for Invention” begins.
March Madness
From the growing role of AI in design tools to the challenge of managing cumulative tolerances, these articles in this issue examine the technical details, design choices, and manufacturing considerations that determine whether a board works as intended.

American Standard Circuits to Exhibit at PCB Carolina 2022
October 26, 2022 | American Standard CircuitsEstimated reading time: 1 minute
American Standard will once again be exhibiting at this year’s PCB Carolina 2022, which is considered the Southeast’s premier PCB focused show. The show will be held on Wednesday, November 9th at the McKimmon Center in Raleigh, North Carolina.
There will be 16 technical sessions, a keynote address, a vendor exhibition with over 70 companies participating, food throughout the day, and best of all, this event is FREE to all attendees.
The show will cover all stages of electronics including product development, PCB design, signal integrity, electrical engineering, firmware, thermal, mechanical, test, inspection, contract manufacturing, technician, debug, compliance, analysis, purchasing, and more.
“Our business is really growing in that area of the country right now, so PCB Carolina is a great show for us to attend. It will give is the opportunity to visit with our current customers and meet new ones. We also look forward to working with our reps, the Fab Source Group, who will be manning the booth with us,” remarked Anaya Vardya, president, and CEO. “Our growth this year has been phenomenal, and I believe the reason for that is working with rep teams like the Fab Source Group and others around the country. This is going to be a great show for us at American Standard Circuits.”
Visit American Standard Circuits on the show floor at Table 66.

The Chemical Connection: When the Industry Moves Faster Than the Standards
04/29/2026 | Don Ball -- Column: The Chemical ConnectionAs a supplier of wet processing equipment, we have rules and standards we must adhere to, including both regional and national electrical codes and safety and environmental regulations, as well as myriad other standards to make the equipment safe to use. Things are a little different when it comes to rules and standards for manufacturing PCBs, though, because technical advances and requirements change so quickly that standards can’t keep up.

Standardization, Workforce, and the Road Ahead for Flex–Packaging Integration, Part 3
04/22/2026 | Anaya Vardya, American Standard CircuitsParts 1 and 2 of this series established the technical foundation and application landscape for the convergence of flexible PCBs and advanced semiconductor packaging. Part 3 addresses what comes next: the standards frameworks, talent pipelines, and strategic imperatives that will determine whether the industry can scale this convergence reliably and competitively.
Single Pair Ethernet (SPE): A Valuable Option for Modern Designs
04/20/2026 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007When it comes to designing PCBs and full systems for increasingly complex electronics hardware, who doesn’t want to reduce complexity and cost? Single-Pair Ethernet (SPE) has emerged as a solution and is gaining rapid attention across industrial electronics and PCB design because it enables Ethernet communication over a single twisted pair, replacing the traditional two- or four-pair cabling used in standard Ethernet networks. This seemingly simple shift has significant implications for designers: smaller connectors, reduced cable weight, longer reach, and the ability to carry both data and power over a single pair.
PHOTO GALLERY: Putting in the Work on Standards, Professional Development
04/16/2026 | I-Connect007Behind every standard, innovation, and step forward in electronics are the people who show up to do the work. This week's photo gallery highlights the attendees who filled meeting rooms and classrooms throughout APEX, collaborating on standards development committees, sharing expertise, and investing in their own growth through professional development. These are the faces of progress, gathered not just to learn, but to contribute and shape what comes next.
