It's tough to get much smaller than ultra HDI. This is a whole new level of miniaturization for most PCB designers and fabricators. UHDI folks speak in terms of microns, not mils. And everything changes when you start working with 15-micron lines and spaces.
So, in the October issue of Design007 Magazine, we asked some of the top UHDI experts to share their knowledge about designing and fabricating these tiny features. Join us as we journey to UHDI and beyond!

These UHDI technologies help manufacturers achieve higher efficiency, better quality control, and greater automation. Following are some leading-edge manufacturing applications of UHDI in manufacturing.
Global PCB Connections: A Technical Overview of Long-flex Printed Circuit Boards
11/14/2024 | Jerome Larez -- Column: Global PCB ConnectionsFlex printed circuit boards are an essential advancement in the electronics industry, enabling the development of flexible, lightweight, and durable electronic designs. As technology has evolved, long-flex PCBs have emerged as a key component in applications requiring extended or intricate routing paths. Because of their use in automotive, commercial, and medical devices, designers are becoming more comfortable designing PCBs with this technology. This column will explore their attributes and role in modern products. I will also offer some essential tips for designing with manufacturability in mind.
Automating Test Processes in Modern PCBA Manufacturing
11/12/2024 | Josh Casper, Horizon SalesICT and functional test play critical roles in the electronics manufacturing process. In many cases, these processes are the final line of defense in identifying defects, preventing failures from reaching the end user, and safeguarding a manufacturer's reputation. A growing problem in this area has been the sheer increase in production output from the SMT line. As components get smaller, PCBs will continue shrinking, allowing engineers to design highly panelized products.
Exploring Innovation Through Alternate Metals and Sputtering
11/11/2024 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007Dr. Evelyne Parmentier has a PhD in physical chemistry from ETH Zurich. She was born in Luxembourg and is now a proud resident of Switzerland, where she has been part of Dyconex’s R&D engineering team for the past two years. Evelyne gave a presentation at the EIPC Summer Conference titled “Functionalization of Printed Circuit Boards Through Introducing Alternate Metals Through Sputtered Layers,” where she asked her audience, “If there are 93 metals in the periodic table, why are we not using more of them?”
