Current IssueCreating the Ideal Data Package
Why is it so difficult to create the ideal data package? Many of these simple errors can be alleviated by paying attention to detail—and knowing what issues to look out for. So, this month, our experts weigh in on the best practices for creating the ideal design data package for your design.
Designing Through the Noise
Our experts discuss the constantly evolving world of RF design, including the many tradeoffs, material considerations, and design tips and techniques that designers and design engineers need to know to succeed in this high-frequency realm.
Learning to Speak ‘Fab’
Our expert contributors clear up many of the miscommunication problems between PCB designers and their fab and assembly stakeholders. As you will see, a little extra planning early in the design cycle can go a long way toward maintaining open lines of communication with the fab and assembly folks.

IPC Training Course on PCB Design for RF Boards
July 26, 2023 | IPCEstimated reading time: Less than a minute

IPC will be holding a training course on printed circuit board (PCB) design for radio frequency (RF) board every Mondays and Wednesday from August 7 to September 13. The training sessions will be held via virtual meetings 11am to 1pm ET (5-7pm CET).
The program is designed to provide circuit board designers with a balanced foundation of theoretical knowledge and practical skills in printed circuit board design.
Upon completion, participants will be able to design boards for high-speed analog and RF/microwave frequencies; understand the trade-offs in materials used in these applications; define a board stackup that implements structures that will meet the needs of these designs; as well as understand and mitigate signal integrity issues for these designs.
They will also be able to learn the effects of mechanical retention needs for these applications, define and implement the tighter manufacturing tolerances, as well as understand the documentation requirements for these designs.

Defining the Ideal PCB Design Data Output
05/27/2025 | Stephen V. Chavez, Siemens EDAAt the heart of delivering successful, manufacturable printed circuit boards lies a vital question: What should your design data output package include to best support manufacturing? The answer: It depends. There are many factors to consider regarding the specific category you’re designing for—such as mil/aero, space, medical, and commercial. Other factors that need to be considered are requirements and engineering intent.
