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.

Happy’s Tech Talk #35: Yields March to Design Rules
12/12/2024 | Happy Holden -- Column: Happy’s Tech TalkUltra high density interconnect (UHDI) has many forms, structures, and alternatives, so capturing all the variations and reducing them to design rules has required some departures from traditional IPC design standards. In this column, I’ll be discussing the IPC UHDI design guidelines and standards. The fundamental question is: “Do you need HDI or microvias?”
The Shaughnessy Report: A Stack of Advanced Packaging Info
12/10/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy -- Column: The Shaughnessy ReportIt’s only fitting that this issue on advanced packaging and stackup features a “stackup” of “packages” on the cover. There’s certainly a lot to “unpack” in this issue. As advanced packaging moves further into the mainstream of PCB design, more PCB designers and design engineers are realizing this isn’t a plug-and-play technology. As we see in this issue, advanced packaging can have an impact on the entire design—the stackup in particular.

UHDI Fundamentals: UHDI Bleeding-edge Manufacturing Applications, Part 1
11/14/2024 | Anaya Vardya, American Standard CircuitsLast month, I talked about ultra high definition interconnect (UHDI) in relation to entertainment applications. This month, I will explain bleeding-edge UHDI applications in manufacturing, which are revolutionizing the industry by enabling ultra-precise visual data transmission, high-speed communication between devices, and real-time monitoring. These UHDI technologies help manufacturers achieve higher efficiency, better quality control, and greater automation. Following are some leading-edge manufacturing applications of UHDI in manufacturing.
UHDI Fundamentals: ‘UHDI’ Bleeding-edge Entertainment Applications, Part 1
10/10/2024 | Anaya Vardya, American Standard CircuitsAs soon as we cross below the 1-mil (0.001") line width threshold, we need to stop talking in terms of mils and ounces and begin talking in terms of microns. For reference, a 3-mil trace is 75 microns, so a 1-mil trace is 25 microns. In general terms, ultra high density interconnect refers to line and spaces on a printed circuit board that are sub-25 micron. In the context of this article, ultra high-definition interconnect (UHDI) refers to the technology and infrastructure used to transmit and connect ultra high-definition signals, typically 4K, 8K, or even higher resolutions, across devices like displays, cameras, servers, and processors.
