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.

Liquid AI Raises $250M to Scale Capable and Efficient General-purpose AI
December 16, 2024 | Liquid AIEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Liquid AI announces a Series A round of financing with AMD Ventures as strategic lead.
This funding will help Liquid AI accelerate the development, scaling, and deployment of Liquid Foundation Models, their lightweight, general-purpose AI models that unlock private, efficient, and reliable enterprise-grade AI for all.
At Liquid, their mission is to build the most capable and efficient AI system at every scale. CEO, Ramin Hasani says, “We are proud that our new industry-leading partners trust our mission; together, we plan to unlock sovereign AI experiences for businesses and users."
Since inception, Liquid AI have worked to prove that their science and technology scales: They released text-based models, announced multimodal LFMs, and started testing out AI products in the market with key partners to demonstrate their real-world impact. In the next phase, the company will use the Series A funding to scale their compute infrastructure, expedite their product readiness on the edge and on-premise, e.g. LFM inference and fine-tuning stacks, and bring advanced AI offerings to a broader audience through our valued partnerships.
Liquid AI will integrate AI products into mission-critical workflows in many sectors such as consumer electronics, telecommunication, financial services, e-commerce, and biotechnology. The funding will also accelerate Liquid AI’s science and technology development, scaling the advantages of LFMs across more model sizes and data modalities. As part of their commitment to democratizing access to AI, they invite interested parties to consider joining the dynamic team at Liquid AI.
“Liquid AI’s unique approach to developing efficient AI models will push the boundaries of AI, making it far more accessible,” said Mathew Hein, Senior Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer of Corporate Development at AMD. “We are thrilled to collaborate with Liquid AI to train and deploy their AI models on AMD Instinct GPUs and support their growth through this latest funding round.”
