Current IssueSilicon to Systems: From Soup to Nuts
This month, we asked our expert contributors to weigh in on silicon to systems—what it means to PCB designers and design engineers, EDA companies, and the rest of the PCB supply chain... from soup to nuts.
Cost Drivers
In this month’s issue of Design007 Magazine, our expert contributors explain the impact of cost drivers on PCB designs and the need to consider a design budget. They discuss the myriad design cycle cost adders—hidden and not so hidden—and ways to add value.
Mechatronics
Our expert contributors discuss the advent of mechatronics in PCB design, the challenges and opportunities this creates for circuit board designers, and the benefits—to the employee and the company—of becoming a mechatronics engineer.

AIM to Highlight NC259FPA Ultrafine No Clean Solder Paste at NEPCON Vietnam
August 20, 2024 | AIMEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
AIM Solder, a leading global manufacturer of solder assembly materials for the electronics industry, is pleased to announce its participation in the upcoming NEPCON Vietnam taking place September 11-13 at I.C.E. Hanoi, Vietnam. Among other great products, AIM will be highlighting its recently released NC259FPA Ultrafine No Clean Solder Paste.
NC259FPA is a zero-halogen paste engineered for precise print definition with type 6 and smaller alloy powders through stencil apertures less than 150 µm in diameter. Ideal for miniLED, microLED, die attach, micro BGA, and HDI boards, this innovative new product features excellent wetting, high transfer efficiency, high reliability, and high tack force for mass transfer.
To learn more about NC259FPA and to discover all of AIM’s products and services, visit the company at NEPCON Vietnam September 11-13th at booth U05.

Circuit Technology Center Announces Expanded Tinning Services Capacity
09/16/2024 | Circuit Technology CenterCircuit Technology Center announces it has expanded its electronic component tinning services capacity. Four (4) Hentec-Odyssey 1325 robotic hot solder dip machines are in full operation to meet the increasing demand from the defense and high-reliability customer base that requires component tinning services for tin whisker mitigation, gold mitigation, and lead re-conditioning.
The Knowledge Base: The Pivotal Role of Solder Paste
09/16/2024 | Mike Konrad -- Column: The Knowledge BaseIn the complex world of electronics manufacturing, the humble solder paste plays a pivotal role. Often overshadowed by more conspicuous electronics assembly equipment and materials, this blend of powdered metal and flux is the unsung hero that binds the electronic circuits together. But beyond its adhesive and conductive properties, the selection of the right solder paste is crucial for ensuring the long-term reliability of electronic devices.
I-Connect007 Editor’s Choice: Five Must-Reads for the Week
09/13/2024 | Marcy LaRont, PCB007 MagazineAt the top of my list is “Silicon to Systems,” an interview with technology experts from IPC: Matt Kelly, Devan Iyer, and Kris Moyer. Also, this week, we hear from I-Connect007 Managing Editor Nolan Johnson, who’s been in Mexico for SMTA Guadalajara. Speaking of Mexico, I want to highlight an interview that appeared in IPC Community between Lorena Villanueva and Barjouth Aguilar of Flex, who talk about the importance of sustainability. I wrap up my recommendations with articles about solder printing and wet process control.
Making Waves With Solder Paste Jetting
09/11/2024 | Josh Casper, Horizon SalesAs electronics shrink and PCB density grows, traditional solder deposition methods such as stencil printing face significant challenges. One solution making substantial waves is solder paste jetting. Solder paste jetting is no secret. In fact, the development and commercialization of this technology has been around since the early 2000s. So, why now? We’ve arrived at a time in which the maturity of this technology has intersected with new demands of electronics manufacturing.
Scrutinizing Solder Printing
09/10/2024 | Nolan Johnson, I-Connect007As members of the technical staff at Indium, Adam Murling, technical manager, and Ron Lasky, senior technologist and professor at Dartmouth University, know their way around metallurgy and solder formulation. I corralled them for a conversation on solder application techniques from the solder’s perspective and their insights did not disappoint.
