Flex PCB Body Panels in CubeSats

10/08/2026 | Anaya Vardya, American Standard Circuits
A standard CubeSat (nanosatellite) leaves an engineer with almost no room for compromise. A 1U unit is a 10 cm cube; even a 6U or 12U bus measures its budget in grams and cubic centimeters, not the kilograms and racks available to a traditional satellite. Every wire harness, connector, and mounting bracket is mass and volume that could otherwise carry a sensor, a radio, or extra battery capacity. That pressure is what has pushed flexible printed circuits out of the wiring harness and onto the structure itself, turning the body panels that form a CubeSat's outer skin into functional electronic assemblies.

Fresh PCB Concepts: Managing PCB Trace Width and Spacing

09/22/2026 | Team NCAB -- Column: Fresh PCB Concepts
As a fabricator, I know that trace width and spacing are some of the first items reviewed when determining whether a PCB can be manufactured reliably. They may look like simple dimensions in the design data, but the ability to reproduce them consistently depends on several factors, such as the circuit's location, the copper weight used, the design density, and any additional plating requirements. These can all change what is realistically achievable.

Smart Textile Integration with Flex PCBs

08/10/2026 | Anaya Vardya, American Standard Circuits
The idea of clothing that monitors your health sounds like science fiction. It is not. Flex PCBs, integrated with conductive yarns and polymer substrates, are turning ordinary fabric into diagnostic platforms and turning your shirt into a medical device. The implications for healthcare, athletics, and workplace safety are profound. The fundamental engineering challenge of wearable electronics has always been the interface between two incompatible worlds: the rigid, planar world of conventional electronics and the soft, stretchy, washable world of textiles. Early smart garments solved this by simply attaching a rigid sensor pod to clothing, which was functional but bulky and uncomfortable. Flex PCBs collapse that boundary.
