Prepare to delve deeply into our latest issue of Design007 Magazine!
We’re always hearing about PCB technology running into a wall. On the design side, Moore’s Law hit one such wall. On the fab side, features are now so tiny that the traditional subtractive methods have hit another type of wall. Similarly, the popularity of embedded components is the result of technology hitting a wall, or a series of walls. If your board’s skyline faces height limitations, and/or if reliability is paramount, embedding components into the layers of the PCB is a great way to go.
In this issue of Design007 Magazine, our expert contributors lay down the foundation of knowledge that designers need to be aware of to make intelligent, educated decisions about embedded design. They discuss the many design and manufacturing hurdles that can trip up designers who are new to this technology while providing an array of solutions. Read what IPC's Kris Moyer had to say on this subject in 'Every Designer Needs to Understand Embedded'.
