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.

UHDI Fundamentals: UHDI Technology and Automated Inspection
11/03/2025 | Anaya Vardya, American Standard CircuitsFollowing up on the last article on integrating ultra high density interconnect (UHDI) PCB technologies and Quality 5.0, here we will do a deeper dive into the automated inspection component. UHDI applications demand extreme precision, with line/space dimensions below 25 µm and microvias below 30 µm. Automated inspection systems are essential to achieving the defect-free fabrication required at these scales, and legacy automated inspection systems are becoming obsolete and ineffective.
On the Line With… Ultra HDI Podcast—Episode 7: “Solder Mask: Beyond the Traces,” Now Available
10/31/2025 | I-Connect007I-Connect007 is excited to announce the release of the seventh episode of its 12-part podcast series, On the Line With… American Standard Circuits: Ultra HDI. In this episode, “Solder Mask: Beyond the Traces,” host Nolan Johnson sits down with John Johnson, Director of Quality and Advanced Technology at American Standard Circuits, to explore the essential role that solder mask plays in the Ultra HDI (UHDI) manufacturing process.
Connect the Dots: Designing for the Reality of UHDI PCBs—Drilling
11/04/2025 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsUltra high density interconnect (UHDI) PCBs are changing the game in designing for the reality of manufacturing. With both consumer and industrial electronic devices becoming more advanced, the demand for UHDI PCBs will grow. That means we’re all likely to be designing more UHDI boards. UHDI advanced miniaturization technology challenges designers with regard to both board thickness and footprint. Designers will face more variables in every aspect of design creation. This is certainly the case with drilling.
Episode 6 of Ultra HDI Podcast Series Explores Copper-filled Microvias in Advanced PCB Design and Fabrication
10/15/2025 | I-Connect007I-Connect007 has released Episode 6 of its acclaimed On the Line with... American Standard Circuits: Ultra High Density Interconnect (UHDI) podcast series. In this episode, “Copper Filling of Vias,” host Nolan Johnson once again welcomes John Johnson, Director of Quality and Advanced Technology at American Standard Circuits, for a deep dive into the pros and cons of copper plating microvias—from both the fabricator’s and designer’s perspectives.
Interposers, Substrates, and Advanced Manufacturing
10/13/2025 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007I attend a lot of industry trade shows and conferences. Lately, during conversations with technologists, I’ve noticed that there is some confusion about what exactly constitutes an interposer. One question I hear every so often is, “Are all interposers substrates?” The short answer to that question is no. But some interposers are, in fact, full substrates.
