XDry Announces 15th Anniversary of Pioneering Humidity-Controlled Storage
January 6, 2023 | XDry Corp.Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
XDry Corp., a leading supplier of humidity-controlled storage cabinets for electronic manufacturing, laboratories and preservation, celebrates its 15-year anniversary in 2023. Founder Kevin McCarten was an early pioneer in the design of humidity-controlled storage – also known as auto-electronic desiccator storage cabinets.
Today, the company has a corporate headquarters in Dallas, Texas, with authorized distributors in Bangkok, Thailand and all of Europe. XDry’s cabinet environment can be maintained from ambient to 1% RH, providing constant and stable storage at precisely the required RH level. XDry storage cabinets satisfy standards such as IPC/JEDEC J-STD-033 and IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020.
“Fifteen years is a great accomplishment, but knowing our first-year dry storage cabinets are still in operation is an even bigger one,” stated Scott Fillebrown, President of XDry. “We have made great strides in the last couple years with US based inventory and a spare parts depot that typically ships the same day. We are excited to see what the next 15 years will hold.”
As a dry cabinet manufacturer, XDry offers a wide selection of dry cabinets to choose from, including storage for printed circuit boards, moisture sensitive devices (MSD), optics, laboratory equipment, industrial equipment, collectables, media and more.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Revamp Your Components with BGA Reballing
10/14/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileBall grid array (BGA) components evolved from pin grid array (PGA) devices, carrying over many of the same electrical benefits while introducing a more compact and efficient interconnect format. Instead of discrete leads, BGAs rely on solder balls on the underside of the package to connect to the PCB. In some advanced designs, solder balls are on both the PCB and the BGA package. In stacked configurations, such as package-on-package (PoP), these solder balls also interconnect multiple packages, enabling higher functionality in a smaller footprint.
