Current IssueAdvanced Packaging and Stackup Design
This month, our expert contributors discuss the impact of advanced packaging on stackup design—from SI and DFM challenges through the variety of material tradeoffs that designers must contend with in HDI and UHDI.
Rules of Thumb
This month, we delve into rules of thumb—which ones work, which ones should be avoided. Rules of thumb are everywhere, but there may be hundreds of rules of thumb for PCB design. How do we separate the wheat from the chaff, so to speak?
Partial HDI
Our expert contributors provide a complete, detailed view of partial HDI this month. Most experienced PCB designers can start using this approach right away, but you need to know these tips, tricks and techniques first.

RTX's Raytheon Awarded U.S. Navy Contract for Next Generation Jammer Mid-Band Expansion
October 1, 2024 | RTXEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Raytheon, an RTX business, has been awarded a $192 million contract from the U.S. Navy to develop the Next Generation Jammer Mid-Band Expansion (NGJ-MBX), an upgrade to the current Next Generation Jammer Mid-Band (NGJ-MB) system.
This modification will extend the frequency range of the NGJ-MB system to counter additional threats. MBX provides additional capabilities to improve operational effectiveness.
"Offensive Electronic Attack provides a tremendous combat capability supporting strike packages and kinetic weapons across a broad range of missions," said Barbara Borgonovi, president of Naval Power at Raytheon. "With this upgrade, we'll ensure our naval aviators in all theaters are better prepared to counter new adversary threats and provide greater combat power throughout their missions."
NGJ-MB, to include MBX, is a cooperative development and production program with the Royal Australian Air Force. It is an airborne electronic attack system consisting of two pods containing active electronically scanned arrays that radiate in the mid-band frequency range.
The U.S. Navy employs NGJ-MB on the EA-18G GROWLER® to target advanced electronic warfare threats.
Work under this contract will take place in Dallas; Forest, Michigan; El Segundo, California; and Fort Wayne, Indiana through 2027.
