Current IssueVoices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.
It's Show Time!
In this month’s issue of PCB007 Magazine we reimagine the possibilities featuring stories all about IPC APEX EXPO 2025—covering what to look forward to, and what you don’t want to miss.

Fine-Line Circuits Ltd - India to Exhibit at International Microwave Symposium (IMS) 2023
May 15, 2023 | Fine-Line Circuits Ltd - IndiaEstimated reading time: 1 minute

Abhay Doshi, Managing Director of Fine-Line Circuits Ltd, has announced that his company will be exhibiting at this year’s International Microwave Symposium (IMS) to be held June 11-17 at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego, CA.
It is Fine-Line’s mission to provide PCBs and PCBAs that deliver to the customer the RF performance they expect. They achieve this by working with every customer from the start through material selection, design optimization and final simulation, material stocking, PCB fabrication, and PCBA assembly to ensure expected precise RF performance.
When making this announcement Mr. Doshi said, “This is an excellent symposium and exhibition for us as we continue to increase our share of PCB supplies to the RF market. For a number of years now have been focused on RF and Microwave Systems requirements and the IMS 2023 symposium gives us the opportunity to talk to other like-minded individuals about this growing segment of the Electronics market. We look forward to meeting and talking with potential partners and customers in San Diego in June.”
Fine-Line Circuits will exhibiting in Booth 1713 sharing their expertise on providing the ideal surface finish for RF Microwave PCBs – Electrolytic Thick Gold Direct on Copper which gives a great skin and no Nickel related signal losses giving the designer the precise RF performance that the system is designed for.
Fine-Line has built a variety of PCB boards (hybrids, cavities, copper back, oversized PCBs) for a variety of Space and Defense Applications and other various systems (satcoms, radar, antenna, dividers, amplifiers, etc).

Connect the Dots: Stop Killing Your Yield—The Hidden Cost of Design Oversights
04/03/2025 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsI’ve been in this industry long enough to recognize red flags in PCB designs. When designers send over PCBs that look great on the computer screen but have hidden flaws, it can lead to manufacturing problems. I have seen this happen too often: manufacturing delays, yield losses, and designers asking, “Why didn’t anyone tell me sooner?” Here’s the thing: Minor design improvements can greatly impact manufacturing yield, and design oversights can lead to expensive bottlenecks. Here’s how to find the hidden flaws in a design and avoid disaster.

04/01/2025 | Real Time with...IPC APEX EXPOChris Mitchell, VP of Global Government Relations for IPC, discusses IPC's concerns about tariffs on copper and their impact on U.S. electronics manufacturing. He emphasizes the complexity of supply chains and the need for policymakers to understand their effects.
The Chemical Connection: Surface Finishes for PCBs
03/31/2025 | Don Ball -- Column: The Chemical ConnectionWriting about surface finishes brings a feeling of nostalgia. You see, one of my first jobs in the industry was providing technical support for surface cleaning processes and finishes to enhance dry film adhesion to copper surfaces. I’d like to take this opportunity to revisit the basics, indulge in my nostalgia, and perhaps provide some insight into why we do things the way we do them in the here and now.
NUS Physicists Discover a Copper-free High-temperature Superconducting Oxide
