Current IssueIn Pursuit of Perfection: Defect Reduction
For bare PCB board fabrication, defect reduction is a critical aspect of a company's bottom line profitability. In this issue, we examine how imaging, etching, and plating processes can provide information and insight into reducing defects and increasing yields.
Voices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.

UHDI Fundamentals: UHDI Advances Neurotechnology
March 5, 2025 | Anaya Vardya, American Standard CircuitsEstimated reading time: Less than a minute

Ultra high density interconnect (UHDI) technology is revolutionizing the field of neurotechnology and brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) by enabling unprecedented levels of miniaturization, complexity, and performance in neural devices. Here’s an in-depth look at how UHDI contributes to these domains:
Dense Electrode Arrays
UHDI technology is a game-changer for dense electrode arrays used in neurotechnology and neuroscience research. These arrays are critical for applications such as neural recording, stimulation, and mapping, where precision and miniaturization are paramount.
- Higher spatial resolution: UHDI facilitates the design of densely packed interconnects for neural electrode arrays, enabling more precise detection and stimulation of neural signals.
- Improved signal quality: The reduced impedance and enhanced connectivity ensure cleaner signal acquisition, critical for high-fidelity neural recording.
Applications:
- Brain signal mapping for neuroscience research
- Prosthetic control through detailed neural activity monitoring
