American Standard Circuits will be exhibiting at this year’s Focus on PCB: From Design to Assembly to be held Wednesday, May 17 and Thursday, May 18 at the Vicenza Expo Centre in Vicenza, Italy.
“As the trend for a complete synergistic solutions (design, fabrication and assembly) becomes more pronounced, ASC becomes increasingly dedicated to providing holistic solutions to our customers. We want to attend this show to keep our finger on the pulse of the European electronics market,” explained president and CEO Anaya Vardya.
Focus on PCB is the first and only European B2B event dedicated to the world of PCB and PCBA and is and unmissable opportunity for all the PCB-PCBA stakeholders to share ideas and know-how. The entire Printed Circuit Board supply chain – from designers to end-users, can meet up and gain valuable insights into the latest developments, as well as share their values and views.

Global PCB Connections: Understanding the General Fabrication Process—A Designer’s Hidden Advantage
08/14/2025 | Markus Voeltz -- Column: Global PCB ConnectionsDesigners don’t need to become fabricators, but understanding the basics of PCB fabrication can save you time, money, and frustration. The more you understand what’s happening on the shop floor, the better you’ll be able to prevent downstream issues. As you move into more advanced designs like HDI, flex circuits, stacked vias, and embedded components, this foundational knowledge becomes even more critical. Remember: the fabricator is your partner.
The Art and Science of PCB Floor Planning: A Comprehensive Guide
08/14/2025 | Cory Grunwald and Jeff Reinhold, Monsoon SolutionsPCB design is an intricate and crucial part of developing electronic products. One of the foundational stages of PCB design is floor planning, a phase where the placement of components and the flow of signals are meticulously mapped out. A good floor plan ensures that the PCB performs well, is easy to manufacture, and meets all mechanical and electrical requirements. We’ll explore the essential aspects of floor planning, from its objectives and process to the challenges that designers face.

Elementary, Mr. Watson: Why Your PCB Looks Like a Studio Apartment
08/13/2025 | John Watson -- Column: Elementary, Mr. WatsonIn November 2022, I wrote a column called "Is Your Bathroom in the Kitchen?" This piece related a bizarre real estate listing that emerged out of St. Louis that had architects scratching their heads and interior designers cringing. Nestled in the historic Central West End sat a 200-square-foot apartment that completely defied logic. It wasn't the size that raised eyebrows, it was the layout. Here's the kicker: While that's rare in real estate, it's shockingly common in PCB design.
