Current IssueSimplification
On the subject of simplification, our expert contributors explain how to design PCBs without making them complex and over-constrained—whatever the level of technology. In addition, we discuss the effect your decisions and tradeoffs have on design complexity.
The Standards of Design
Our expert contributors discuss how PCB designers can utilize standards to save time and money, not to mention frustration. We also spotlight the newly updated version of the IPC Checklist, a handy guide that illustrates which standards cover which topics, from front-end design through assembly.
Rigid-flex: Designing in 3D
In this month’s issue, our expert contributors share their best tips, tricks and techniques for designing rigid-flex circuits. If you’re a rigid board designer considering moving into the 3D world of rigid-flex, this issue is just what the doctor ordered!

StratEdge Reveals High-Performance Semiconductor Packages at European Microwave Week, IMAPS International, and IEEE BCICTS
September 19, 2023 | StratEdgeEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
StratEdge Corporation will present its thermally-efficient line of post-fired and molded ceramic semiconductor packages at several upcoming events including European Microwave Week (EuMW), September 19-21, IMAPS International, October 3-4, and IEEE BCICTS, October 16-17. StratEdge packages dissipate heat from compound semiconductor devices such as gallium nitride (GaN), gallium arsenide (GaAs), and silicon carbide (SiC) and operate from DC to 63+ GHz. The packages provide ultra-low loss performance over a wide range of frequencies, depending on the style and mounting configuration. Many open-tooled designs are available with 50 ohm impedance, which provide convenience and ease for packaging your high-performance semiconductors.
Casey Krawiec, VP of Global Sales at StratEdge, emphasized, "We manufacture our packages with precision, using post-fired ceramics with laser-cut features to control tight tolerances, thermally-enhanced metal bases that dissipate heat, and electrical transition designs that provide exceptionally low electrical losses. For further optimized performance, StratEdge Assembly Services can package your devices in our new cleanroom, equipped with the latest precision wire bonding and die attach systems."

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Package on Package Rework—Skill Required
04/28/2023 | Bob Wettermann -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PilePackage-on-package (PoP) is an electronic component-stacked package type consisting of vertically stacked ball grid arrays most commonly in a two-high stack. The package closest to the board is the logic/CPU component and is more commonly known as the “bottom” package. The “top” package sits on top of this module and is the memory module. These packages are generally found in consumer electronics (mobile devices) such as smartphones, tablets, and netbooks. These packages tend to be high IO count, fine pitch, very thin packages.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: 2023’s Top Challenges in BGA Rework
03/01/2023 | Bob Wettermann -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileOver seven years ago, I put pen to paper to enumerate the top challenges needing to be overcome for a successful BGA rework. With the continued advancement of BGA technology, it’s time to apply a fresh coat of paint to that list. Read on to find out my revised take on today’s top BGA rework challenges. As devices become more complex and computing power requirements increase, the maximum physical size of BGA packages has increased as well. Currently, some devices in development are planned to be 125 mm x 125 mm in size. These large package sizes present some very challenging scenarios for rework process technicians.
