UHDI Fundamentals: UHDI Bleeding-edge Manufacturing Applications, Part 2
December 23, 2024 | Anaya Vardya, American Standard CircuitsEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Ultra high-density interconnect (UHDI) technology is transforming manufacturing by enabling compact, high-performance, and energy-efficient electronics in cutting-edge industrial systems. Its precision and scalability meet the demands of advanced manufacturing technologies. Here's another overview of bleeding-edge UHDI applications in manufacturing:
Smart Manufacturing and IoT-Driven Automation
UHDI enables the miniaturization and performance enhancement of IoT sensors, which are the backbone of Smart manufacturing. With this level of automation, UHDI aids in integrating advanced security measures within IoT devices to prevent data breaches.
- Compact IoT sensors and modules: For real-time data acquisition and machine monitoring
- High-density connectivity: For edge computing devices that process data locally in smart systems
- Energy-efficient controllers: For powering distributed sensor networks
- Multi-sensor integration: UHDI allows multiple sensors (e.g., temperature, pressure, vibration) to be packed into a single compact unit
- Real-time data processing: Dense circuitry ensures high-speed data acquisition and transmission
- Durability: Reliable connections for sensors operating in harsh factory environments
- Hardware-based encryption modules: Ensuring secure data transmission
- Compact circuits for secure booting: Protecting devices from unauthorized access

Light-curable Solutions for Reliable Electronics in Space Applications
10/15/2025 | Virginia Hogan, DymaxDesigning electronics for space environments, particularly those in low Earth orbit (LEO), requires careful consideration of materials that can withstand extreme conditions while supporting long-term reliability. Engineers designing satellite systems, aerospace instrumentation, and high-altitude platforms face a familiar set of challenges: contamination control, mechanical stress, thermal cycling, and manufacturability.
SEMICON West: The Path to a $1 Trillion Future
10/14/2025 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007After more than 50 years in San Francisco, SEMICON West moved its 2025 show to Phoenix, which is significant because it highlights the importance of Arizona as a semiconductor and tech hub. Though the show will be back in San Francisco in 2026, the overwhelmingly warm welcome SEMI received from Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs, Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego, and ASU President Michael Crowe—who has been responsible for ASU repeatedly achieving the U.S. News and World Reports most innovative university ranking—was remarked upon repeatedly. All indications are that SEMICON West may well be back in Phoenix after that 2026 season.

Advanced Packaging-to-Board-Level Integration: Needs and Challenges
09/15/2025 | Devan Iyer and Matt Kelly, Global Electronics AssociationHPC data center markets now demand components with the highest processing and communication rates (low latencies and high bandwidth, often both simultaneously) and highest capacities with extreme requirements for advanced packaging solutions at both the component level and system level. Insatiable demands have been projected for heterogeneous compute, memory, storage, and data communications. Interconnect has become one of the most important pillars of compute for these systems.
Advanced Packaging: Preparation is Now
09/15/2025 | Nolan Johnson, I-Connect007In this interview, Matt Kelly, CTO for the Global Electronics Association, and Devan Iyer, chief strategist of advanced packaging, define advanced electronics packaging and the critical nature of getting it right in the electronics manufacturing field. They share details from their white paper, “Advanced Packaging to Board Level Integration—Needs and Challenges,” and provide insight into how next-generation packaging will change the design, fabrication, and assembly of printed circuit boards, including the implications for final system assembly.
