Current IssueVoices 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.
It's Show Time!
In this month’s issue of PCB007 Magazine we reimagine the possibilities featuring stories all about IPC APEX EXPO 2025—covering what to look forward to, and what you don’t want to miss.

IPC APEX EXPO 2024 Offers More Than 100 Technical Sessions in Electronics Manufacturing
January 23, 2024 | IPCEstimated reading time: 1 minute
The industry’s premier conference and exhibition for the electronics industry, IPC APEX EXPO 2024, features cutting-edge technical content directly influencing the $2 trillion global electronics manufacturing industry. Attendees will have more than 100 opportunities to update their technical knowledge during sessions at IPC APEX EXPO 2024 from April 6-11, 2024, in Anaheim, Calif.
“Our technical conference and professional educational program feature the highest quality technical content from technical experts representing three continents,” said Julia Gumminger, IPC manager, professional development and events. “Industry experts representing global enterprises and small companies will present novel, unpublished data and share their innovations in a wide range of fundamental and emerging topics.”
Unique to 2024, IPC APEX EXPO will host the Electronic Circuits World Convention (ECWC16) Technical Conference, an expanded, global technical symposium featuring more than 70 presentations over nine technical tracks: PCB Fabrication and Materials; Design; Assembly Process and Materials; HDI uHDI and Substrates; Sustainability for Electronics; High Reliability; Factory of the Future; Emerging Technologies; and Quality, Reliability, Test and Inspection.
Authors from around the globe will present their new, unpublished results, to share developments and innovations in materials, techniques, processes across the spectrum of the electronics manufacturing supply chain. Two special technical sessions will feature invited speakers on advanced packaging and e-mobility and EV automotive. The technical conference will be held April 9-11.
IPC APEX EXPO 2024 will provide more than 30 professional development course sessions delivered by technical experts, corporate technologists, and peer leaders in the industry. The professional development courses, covering such topics as artificial intelligence, PWB design engineering, 3-D printing, Li-ion battery technology, and proactive design methods for approaching zero-field failures, will provide attendees the opportunity to build their professional and technical skills and increase their knowledge in techniques, materials, and trends in all aspects of the industry. Professional development courses will be held April 7-8, and April 11.
