In this month’s issue of PCB007 Magazine we reimagine the possibilities featuring stories all about IPC APEX EXPO 2025—covering what to look forward to, and what you don’t want to miss.
Fueling the Workforce Pipeline
We take a hard look at fueling the workforce pipeline, specifically at the early introduction of manufacturing concepts and business to young people in this issue of PCB007 Magazine.
Inner Layer Precision & Yields
In this issue, we examine the critical nature of building precisions into your inner layers and assessing their pass/fail status as early as possible. Whether it’s using automation to cut down on handling issues, identifying defects earlier, or replacing an old line...

CELUS Drops BOM on Electronics Design Complexity
March 5, 2025 | BUSINESS WIREEstimated reading time: 1 minute
CELUS, developer of the leading AI-assisted electronics design platform used by developers and engineers globally, unveiled a new bill of materials (BOM) experience that better satisfies the needs of electronic engineers by helping them choose the right components for the early stages of their PCB design.
Rather than spend days, weeks or months manually researching, evaluating and downloading product specifications for an array of components, engineers can now leverage an updated BOM view in the CELUS Design Platform. Expanded access to new pricing, lifecycle and supply information simplifies and accelerates the design process with automated, AI-driven recommendations of millions of components. Engineers are better positioned to assess supply chain risks prior to beginning the procurement process, ensuring that components are available to be sourced from manufacturers.
The CELUS Design Platform automates component search and schematic generation, enabling quicker, more accurate designs and capturing all requirements. The CELUS Design Platform’s proprietary AI algorithms then analyze specs and capabilities of available components to offer guided suggestions. A detailed component view emphasizes where the components are used and provides a list of alternatives that are accessible by clicking on the manufacturer parts number or descriptor in the BOM.
By optimizing the BOM design experience with additional data provided by Accuris, CELUS extends its market leadership as the global hub for electronic components and complete solutions. With electronic devices typically containing from 200 to 1,000 individual components, using CELUS radically shortens the time it takes to bring new projects from concept to reality – and to market.
“The ability to find the right components for electronic design projects is both overwhelming and time consuming,” said Tobias Pohl, co-founder and CEO of CELUS. “For the visionaries who might not know where to start with turning their design into a reality or the engineers that have pricing or manufacturing preferences to consider, having a system that provides this insight for every component within a circuit is life changing. The CELUS Design Platform with its new supply and pricing data minimizes the time spent on electronics design by recommending real-time component options that simply work, freeing makers to focus on the value of their projects rather than working on menial tasks to get them there.”

Finding and Training the Next Design Engineers
03/06/2025 | Andy Shaughnessy, Design007 MagazineThere are a lot of job openings for PCB design engineers, and not enough young people in the pipeline to fill these jobs. How are we going to attract this next generation of design engineers to this industry, and what’s the best course of action for continuous training of these EEs? I asked Bill Hargin, founder and “director of everything” at Z-zero, to share his thoughts continuous training and what the future may hold for design engineers of the future.
