Current IssueCreating the Ideal Data Package
Why is it so difficult to create the ideal data package? Many of these simple errors can be alleviated by paying attention to detail—and knowing what issues to look out for. So, this month, our experts weigh in on the best practices for creating the ideal design data package for your design.
Designing Through the Noise
Our experts discuss the constantly evolving world of RF design, including the many tradeoffs, material considerations, and design tips and techniques that designers and design engineers need to know to succeed in this high-frequency realm.
Learning to Speak ‘Fab’
Our expert contributors clear up many of the miscommunication problems between PCB designers and their fab and assembly stakeholders. As you will see, a little extra planning early in the design cycle can go a long way toward maintaining open lines of communication with the fab and assembly folks.

Flex Expands U.S. Manufacturing Capacity to Meet Customers' Growing AI-Driven Power Demands with New Dallas Facility
February 28, 2025 | FlexEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Flex announced the expansion of its U.S. manufacturing capacity with a new 400,000-square-foot Dallas manufacturing facility focused on power products. Flex's Dallas location significantly boosts production capacity and efficiency for its grid-to-chip data center power infrastructure solutions, including power pods, power distribution units, and low-voltage switchgear. This strategic investment enhances Flex's ability to meet the rising power infrastructure demands driven by AI adoption and reduces production lead times for U.S. customers.
New 400,000-square-foot Dallas manufacturing facility will serve as a hub for Flex's growing customer base.
Flex continues to invest in its capabilities to serve the data center market. Following the acquisition of Crown Technical Systems in October 2024, the new Dallas facility will serve as a central hub, bringing together technical power pod fabrication and assembly with utility-grade capabilities in the U.S., enabling faster and more efficient distribution for its growing North American customer base. Flex has a proven track record of scaling power pod production in EMEA and is leveraging that expertise for its U.S. expansion.
"As AI adoption accelerates, the need for reliable, efficient, and scalable power infrastructure grows," said Chris Butler, President of Embedded and Critical Power at Flex. "Our new Dallas facility positions us to deliver next-generation power infrastructure solutions that help customers maximize computing performance while reducing deployment times. We are committed to tackling the complex power challenges of AI-enabled data centers."
As part of Flex's continued U.S. growth plan, this expansion reinforces the company's dedication to scaling production to meet the increasing domestic demand for power solutions.

High-frequency EMC Noise in DC Circuits
05/29/2025 | Karen Burnham, EMC UnitedEMC isn’t black magic, but it’s easy to understand why it seems that way. When looking at a schematic like that in Figure 1, it looks like you’re only dealing with DC signals all across the board. There’s a 28 VDC input that goes through an EMI filter, then gets converted to 12 VDC power. Except in extremely rare circumstances involving equipment sensitive to magnetostatic fields, DC electricity will never be part of an EMC problem.
