Current IssueIn Pursuit of Perfection: Defect Reduction
For bare PCB board fabrication, defect reduction is a critical aspect of a company's bottom line profitability. In this issue, we examine how imaging, etching, and plating processes can provide information and insight into reducing defects and increasing yields.
Voices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.

EIPC to Hold Winter Conference
January 3, 2024 | EIPCEstimated reading time: 1 minute
A long time ago, say 70 years, when food started to become interesting, rather than rationed, one of the desserts that one looked forward to was a Black Forest Gateau. It had on the top something few had seen until then – black cherries. But if you really want to have your cake and eat it, you could do no better than head for the Black Forest in Germany for the EIPC Winter Conference which is to be held on Tuesday, 30 January and Wednesday, 31 January 2024 in Villingen-Schwenningen. The event will be held at the IHK Conference Centre and the Holiday Inn next to the IHK will be our overnight stay venue.
Our cherry on the cake will be a visit to Schweizer Electronic AG and in the evening we shall be dining, rather well, in the Aichhalder Mühle restaurant.
The whole conference is in fact a meal in itself, some might say a technical banquet, but if you would like to be a part of it, we strongly advise that you waste no time and register as soon as you can to make sure we have a seat available for you.
The conference will have papers from Schweizer Electronic, Dr. Nakahara, Custer Consulting, iNEMI, NanYa Plastics, Dyconex, SAT, Circuit Foil, Atotech and others. We will also be having a Quick Fire Walk Inn on the Wednesday afternoon on standardization, sustainability, quality and reliability.
