The Pulse: Ultra Upgrade Unknowns—What’s Coming for UHDI?
01/21/2025 | Martyn Gaudion -- Column: The PulseAs we enter the second quarter of the 21st century, there appears to be a new chapter in PCB technology. Ultra high density interconnect (UHDI) has become a buzzword, but it’s actually not that new; many of the processes were already established in the high-volume production of Asian cell phones and tablets. What is new and challenging, however, is migrating the line widths and stackups—once the domain of handheld consumer products—into the lower volume specialized environment of the commercial world.
