Current IssueThe Hole Truth: Via Integrity in an HDI World
From the drilled hole to registration across multiple sequential lamination cycles, to the quality of your copper plating, via reliability in an HDI world is becoming an ever-greater challenge. This month we look at “The Hole Truth,” from creating the “perfect” via to how you can assure via quality and reliability, the first time, every time.
In Pursuit of Perfection: Defect Reduction
For bare PCB board fabrication, defect reduction is a critical aspect of a company's bottom line profitability. In this issue, we examine how imaging, etching, and plating processes can provide information and insight into reducing defects and increasing yields.
Voices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.

American Standard Circuits’ Anaya Vardya to Keynote PanPac Summit 2025
January 9, 2025 | American Standard CircuitsEstimated reading time: 1 minute

The Pan Pacific Strategic Electronics Symposium (PanPac) has announced that Anaya Vardya, President and CEO of American Standard Circuits (ASC), will deliver the keynote address at this year’s conference. Hosted by the Surface Mount Technology Association (SMTA), PanPac 2025 will take place from January 27-30, 2025 at the Sheraton Maui Resort & Spa in Maui, Hawaii.
PanPac aims to foster relationships and build bridges across cultures, industries, technologies, companies, and individuals. The conference’s location in Hawaii is designed to create an atmosphere free from distractions, encouraging focused face-to-face interactions.
Mr. Vardya, a long-time industry innovator and leader, will deliver his keynote address on Tuesday, January 28. His presentation titled “Ultra High-Density Interconnects (UHDI): A Global Innovation in Electronics Assembly” will highlight American Standard’s groundbreaking work in UHDI printed circuit board (PCB) engineering and design. As the industry leader in UHDI technology, ASC continues to set new standards for innovation and excellence.
