New demands on PCB fabrication, namely advanced packaging, ultra high density interconnect (UHDI), and new specialty materials, are converging, changing the landscape of our business. And then there’s the impact of the CHIPS Act.
In this issue of PCB007 Magazine, we look at materials, advanced packaging and UHDI fundamentals from multiple directions with industry voices ranging from fabricators to equipment manufacturers, to industry advocates.
We also bring you special coverage with conversations from some of the suppliers to the ultra-modern fab and assembly facility in Moscow, Idaho, built by Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories.

UHDI Fundamentals: UHDI for RF Microwave Applications
07/16/2024 | Anaya Vardya, American Standard CircuitsUltra high-density interconnect (UHDI) technology has significant potential for RF (radio frequency) microwave applications. Its advantages lie in its ability to provide high-density routing and integration, which are crucial for complex RF circuits. Here are three key UHDI benefits in RF microwave applications:
UHDI Fundamentals: UHDI Applications for Medical Devices
07/03/2024 | Anaya Vardya, American Standard CircuitsUltra high-density interconnect (UHDI) technology typically refers to advanced printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturing techniques that allow for a higher density of electronic components and interconnections within a smaller area. While not directly related to medical applications on its own, UHDI technology can indirectly benefit various medical devices and equipment by enabling smaller, more compact designs with increased functionality and performance.
