Designing Proper Work-Life Balance
In this issue, we hear from designers, marketers, and business owners on how they apply their professional skills to their personal lives to build a healthier work-life balance.
Designing Proper Planes
Without planes, designers would have to create thousands of traces to accomplish the same objectives. Power planes provide low impedance and stable power, and ground planes stabilize reference voltage, improve thermal performance, and help preclude EMI issues.
Power Integrity
Current power demands are increasing, especially with AI, 5G, and EV chips. This month, our experts share “watt’s up” with power integrity, from planning and layout through measurement and manufacturing.

Your 2026 Business Playbook: Step 2: Target Accounts: Stop Chasing Everyone and Start Pursuing Someone
12/11/2025 | Dan Beaulieu, D.B.

Their sales strategy is basically, “If they buy PCBs, we want them.” That’s only wishful thinking masquerading as ambition. If you want to grow, achieve stability, and have customers who value what you do (and are willing to pay for it), don’t waste another year on random pursuits and accidental wins.
