12/06/2024 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007
This week’s must-reads include a discussion on innovation and embedded components within the layers of a PCB with Accurate Circuit Engineering. We revisit the real cost to manufacture in a case study on how a seemingly small design error can have a dramatic effect on your end customer’s costs. Dan Beaulieu provides this month’s book review highlighting the criticality of fostering creativity in the workplace. Bert Horner of The Test Connection discusses his decision to launch a new, complimentary business venture, The Training Connection; and Ramon Roche of NCAB talks about electric vehicle charging.

If You Can Define It Right, You Can Design It Right

12/05/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, Design007
Design engineer Chris Young is known for his optimized design process. As lead hardware engineer with Moog Space and Defense Group and owner of Young Engineering Services, Chris collects data like it’s going out of style, and he leaves nothing to chance. With that in mind, I asked Chris to discuss his views on rules of thumb—which ones work, which ones should be avoided, and how rules fit ideally into the PCB design process.

Flex PCB Design Best Practices

12/04/2024 | Brittany Martin, I-Connect007
David Lackey, a flex circuit expert at American Standard Circuits, speaks about the advantages and challenges of designing with flexible and rigid-flex PCBs. He also discusses how consulting before the design phase can save time and costs by avoiding manufacturing issues and highlights the reliability and packaging benefits of flex technology, especially for compact designs in sectors like aerospace.

The Training Connection Difference

12/04/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, I-Connect007
Bert Horner, president of The Test Connection, has recently launched The Training Connection, a new company that addresses critical training needs in test engineering and development. With a focus on essential methodologies like design for test (DFT) and IPC standards, the initiative promises to enhance the skills of professionals in the field. At PCB Carolina, Bert talked about the program, its positive reception, and the growing demand for practical, effective training solutions within the industry.
