Global PCB Connections: Let the Spec Fit the Board, Not Just the Brand
Beyond Design: Refining Design Constraints
The Pulse: Design Constraints for the Next Generation
April 2023 Issue of Design007 Magazine Available Now
April 10, 2023 | I-Connect007Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
Once a small but steady percentage of all PCB designs, RF is becoming more commonplace in this segment. The last few decades have brought on a proliferation of wireless handheld devices, and almost all of them feature some type of RF circuitry. RF is increasingly cited in I-Connect007 surveys as an area of concern.
In the April 2023 issue of Design007 Magazine, our expert contributors dial in on the best practices for designing RF PCBs for wireless communications, and shine a light on the many trade-offs involved, from material selection to board-level design techniques, and much more.

Zero Touch Data Package: The Future of Seamless PCB Manufacturing
05/22/2025 | Dana Korf, Victory Giant TechnologyImagine a day when a design data file—not a traditional documentation package—is output directly from the eCAD system, transmitted to selected fabricators, and automatically loaded into their engineering/CAM systems, initiating tooling and production without any human intervention. This is zero touch data transfer in action. By eliminating manual processes, front-end personnel at fabrication facilities can be redeployed to strategic areas such as R&D and customer engagement.
Happy’s Tech Talk #38: Novel Metallization for UHDI
05/07/2025 | Happy Holden -- Column: Happy’s Tech TalkI have been involved in high-density electronics substrates since 1970 when I joined Hewlett-Packard’s RF semiconductor group after college. Figure 1 shows the difference between trace/space lithography for substrates and silicon starting in 1970. My projects involved sapphire circuits for RF devices, but the figure displays the state of PCBs and integrated CMOS circuits and their packaging, not discreet RF devices. Even then, semiconductors were 50X higher density.
