Current IssueThe Path Ahead
What are you paying the most attention to as we enter 2025? Find out what we learned when we asked that question. Join us as we explore five main themes in the new year.
Soldering Technologies
Soldering is the heartbeat of assembly, and new developments are taking place to match the rest of the innovation in electronics. There are tried-and-true technologies for soldering. But new challenges in packaging, materials, and sustainability may be putting this key step in flux.
The Rise of Data
Analytics is a given in this industry, but the threshold is changing. If you think you're too small to invest in analytics, you may need to reconsider. So how do you do analytics better? What are the new tools, and how do you get started?

Advanced Chip and Circuit Materials Shows 224 Gb/s Laminates and Prepregs at DesignCon 2025
January 27, 2025 | Advanced Chip and Circuit MaterialsEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Advanced Chip and Circuit Materials, Inc. (ACCM) will be showing its high-performance circuit materials, including its Celeritas Series laminates and prepregs at the DesignCon 2025 exhibition (Santa Clara, CA). The US-based manufacturer will be on hand January 28-30, 2025, at Booth #901 with samples of its Celeritas SF and Celeritas BU products in support of PCIe Gen 6 & 7 multilayer printed circuit boards (PCBs) with data rates reaching 224 Gb/s per channel.
ACCM’s Vice President Marketing, Michael Gay, explained the importance of circuit materials with such high performance and outstanding stability, even in hostile operating environments: “We are confident that PCB designers will find that our skew free Celeritas SF material solution will enable use of on board copper channels to achieve 224 Gbps data rates.” The materials feature halogen-free, PFAS-free composition with minimal skew and low z-axis coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and can be processed with standard FR-4 circuit material processes and equipment. They are engineered high reliability in HDI and UHDI applications requiring superior thermal cycling capability.

Istvan Novak Looks Back on History of DesignCon
01/29/2025 | Andy Shaughnessy, Design007 MagazineMany of us have been attending DesignCon for a long time, but Samtec’s Istvan Novak has been attending DesignCon even before it was called DesignCon. A veteran signal and power integrity engineer, Istvan has been on the Technical Program Committee for over two decades, and he’s authored and co-authored a variety of award-winning conference papers. In honor of the show’s 30th anniversary, I asked Istvan to share a little about the early years of DesignCon, and how he got involved with the event.
