Current IssueAdvanced Packaging and Stackup Design
This month, our expert contributors discuss the impact of advanced packaging on stackup design—from SI and DFM challenges through the variety of material tradeoffs that designers must contend with in HDI and UHDI.
Rules of Thumb
This month, we delve into rules of thumb—which ones work, which ones should be avoided. Rules of thumb are everywhere, but there may be hundreds of rules of thumb for PCB design. How do we separate the wheat from the chaff, so to speak?
Partial HDI
Our expert contributors provide a complete, detailed view of partial HDI this month. Most experienced PCB designers can start using this approach right away, but you need to know these tips, tricks and techniques first.

The Effects of Copper on a Transmission Line
12/23/2024 | Todd Kolmodin, Gardien ServicesAs technology advances, our substrates become increasingly smaller, and chip technology has progressed to where HDI and UHDI are household terms. Ten years ago, this new design architecture would strike fear in the hearts of any plating engineer. Unfortunately, North American and European manufacturing has lagged due to excessive offshoring of commercial and some high-reliability product lines. Fortunately, most of the military and aerospace product has remained controlled. But in doing so, the designs utilized by the mil/aero and medical sectors’ reliability lines were corralled into the manufacturing capabilities of the North American and European providers.

The Knowledge Base: The Era of Advanced Packaging
12/23/2024 | Mike Konrad -- Column: The Knowledge BaseThe semiconductor industry is at a pivotal juncture. As the traditional scaling predicted by Moore's Law encounters significant physical and economic barriers, transistor density can no longer double every two years without escalating costs and complications. As a result, the industry is shifting its focus from chip-level advancements to innovative packaging and substrate technologies. I Invited Dr. Nava Shpaisman, strategic collaboration manager at KLA, to provide some insight.
