iNEMI Connector Footprint Tolerance End-of-Project Webinar
October 24, 2024 | iNEMIEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
iNEMI’s PCB Connector Footprint Tolerance Project investigated industry capability, risks and mitigation strategies associated with high-bandwidth I/O connector footprints. As bandwidth continues to double every three years, the reduction in connector pitch imposes stringent design requirements on PCB fabrication processes. The project team aimed to provide product designers with the information necessary to ensure predictable quality levels when using high-bandwidth connectors. A literature review, along with team experience, helped identify potential risks and create a PCB industry survey to assess supplier capabilities for appropriate quality mitigation.
Join us for this end-of-project webinar where we will review survey results and highlight areas of expectations and gaps between PCB fabricators and connector manufacturers. Additionally, the team will present recommendations for quality assessment and dimension control.

Target Condition: The 5 Ws of PCB Design Constraints
07/29/2025 | Kelly Dack -- Column: Target ConditionHave you ever sat down to define PCB design constraints and found yourself staring at a settings window with more checkboxes than a tax form? You’re not alone. For many designers—especially those newer to the layout world—the task of setting up design constraints can feel like trying to write a novel in a language you just started learning.
Leveraging Chemical Data More Efficiently
07/29/2025 | Lynn L. Bergeson, Bergeson & CampbellSome truths transcend politics, one being that chemical data holds enduring value and is becoming increasingly essential. In the United States, regardless of which party federally controls the levers of power, it’s clear that chemical manufacturers and their customers must develop and curate robust data portfolios for their chemical inventories. The commercial imperatives driving this are undeniable and gaining traction.
