Current IssueEngineering Economics
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.

Sunstone Circuits, a printed circuit board (PCB) global solutions provider for prototypes, medium volume, and production quantities, recently announced participation in the PCB East Conference and Exhibition on May 9-12, 2023. Sunstone will be exhibiting alongside its printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) partner, Screaming Circuits, both offering show attendees an exclusive discount for visiting the booths.
PCB East is a four-day technical conference for electronics design, fabrication, assembly, and test engineers. It will take place May 9-12, 2022, in Marlborough, MA. The event includes a one-day exhibition on May 10. For information on the technical conference and to register for PCB East, pcbeast.com.
Meeting and talking with customers face to face is enlightening – a chance to clarify expectations and update customers with new and existing practices and capabilities.
“Through conversations with customers, we find that there are capabilities and manufacturing options that may not be common knowledge such as: Sunstone can build PCBs up to 20 layers, produce higher production quantities and that we also hold ISO 9001 certification registration for ITAR, and compliant with RoHS initiatives and more. Face-to-face is a perfect way to connect with these customers and reconnect with long-time industry partners,” said Kelly Atay, Marketing Program Manager.
