The Key to First-pass Success in PCB Design
04/10/2025 | Gerry Partida, Summit InterconnectIn the dynamic world of PCB manufacturing, achieving first-pass success hinges on more than just cutting-edge equipment and skilled teams. At Summit Interconnect, we have seen countless successful launches of advanced HDI designs that can be traced directly to engagement between designers and fabricators early in the design phase. Unfortunately, collaboration in the PCB industry often begins only after problems arise—such as field failures, assembly fallout, or low fabrication yields. This reactive approach is the wrong starting point for collaboration.

The Shaughnessy Report: Always With the Negative Waves
04/09/2025 | Andy Shaughnessy -- Column: The Shaughnessy ReportWhen I started covering PCB design in the ‘90s, RF designers comprised a small percentage of the design community. Other than cellphones and handheld GPS devices, RF wasn’t seen very often outside of military, aerospace, and law enforcement applications. Now, RF is everywhere. Almost every electronic device in your house and pocket—your cellphone, tablet, laptop, smartwatch, and wireless/smart speaker—contains RF technology. The entire wearable segment is built on RF technology
