Kimball's GES Vietnam Employees Volunteer Time at Orphanage
July 19, 2023 | Kimball ElectronicsEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Last month, members of the GES Vietnam family visited the Tu Tam Center in Binh Duong, which is home to more than 50 orphans with disabilities.
During the visit, GES Vietnam (GESVN) employees gave the children books donated by employees, and essential necessities such as cooking oil, rice, and milk were donated to the orphanage.
In addition, the GESVN team also helped make repairs at the center and spent time with the children.
Small activities like this are meaningful to our community.

Meet Emerging Engineer Logan Bistodeau, IBM
04/09/2026 | Michelle Te, I-Connect007When he was growing up, Logan Bistodeau was always interested in how heavy machinery worked, so it was natural that he earned a mechanical engineering degree at Iowa State University. He originally grew up near the Twin Cities in Minnesota, now works for IBM, and is in his first year of the Emerging Engineer Program through the Global Electronics Association. I got to know Logan a little better at APEX EXPO 2026.
Target Condition: An Exploration of Flooding PCB Layers
04/02/2026 | Kelly Dack -- Column: Target ConditionThe concept of flooding PCB layers with copper has been around for so long, you’d think we’d have it mastered. We haven’t. (Oh, and by “we,” I mean design engineers and the software tools we depend on.) Years ago, PCB artwork was created by hand using light tables, with tape applied to Mylar. Signals were slow, traces were relatively wide, and high-current paths were simply “beefed up” with wider copper. Signal integrity wasn’t yet a driving concern. Today, solid return paths are fundamental to robust design. We understand the importance of continuous reference planes for signal integrity and EMI control.
