Beyond the Rulebook
What happens when the rule book is no longer useful, or worse, was never written in the first place? In today’s fast-moving electronics landscape, we’re increasingly asked to design and build what has no precedent, no proven path, and no tidy checklist to follow. This is where “Design for Invention” begins.
March Madness
From the growing role of AI in design tools to the challenge of managing cumulative tolerances, these articles in this issue examine the technical details, design choices, and manufacturing considerations that determine whether a board works as intended.
Looking Forward to APEX EXPO 2026
I-Connect007 Magazine previews APEX EXPO 2026, covering everything from the show floor to the technical conference. For PCB designers, we move past the dreaded auto-router and spotlight AI design tools that actually matter.

Ventec Presents Cutting Edge Innovations and High-performance Formulas at IPC APEX EXPO 2025
March 14, 2025 | Ventec International GroupEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Ventec International Group is presenting new substrate materials and proven formulas for high-performance PCBs at IPC APEX Expo 2025, alongside the latest advances in manufacturing equipment from Ventec Giga Solutions.
Expo visitors can see it all at booth 4116 and find out from Ventec specialists how the company’s technical expertise and supply-chain integrity keep high-quality production moving.
New at APEX this year, Ventec’s VT-47LTIPC4101 /126 advanced pre-preg ensures high-reliability performance for boards with high density interconnect (HDI). Its best-in-class z-axis coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) minimizes stress on microvias structures, has exceptional thermal resilience and enhances reliability. As a cutting-edge IPC4101/126 pre-preg, VT-47LT saves time-consuming and expensive requalification of alternative IPC4101 grades to deliver a competitive advantage and faster implementation.
Headlining for Ventec Giga Solutions, the HiPrint SD-11 is a 10-head, 3-color full-coverage soldermask printer that showcases the latest advancements and applications of inkjet printing for PCB production. “Inkjet soldermask technology is becoming increasingly important within the PCB manufacturing community,” comments Leigh Allinson, Ventec Giga Solutions Commercial Director. Leigh will be at the booth throughout the expo to discuss the SD-11 and the fastest way for fabricators to start taking advantage of its capabilities on their factory floor. Also featured will be equipment for legend printing and additional roll-to-roll flex printing options.
There is plenty more to see at booth 4116, including Ventec’s Bondply dielectrics -- Pro-Bond and Thermal-Bond -- which are formulated for high-speed signal integrity, low-loss performance, and thermal management in multilayer PCB stack-ups. Ideal for cutting-edge AI computing and networking applications, these materials are chosen anywhere optimal electrical performance or heat dissipation is essential, including high-layer-count multilayers, high-performance motherboards, server backplanes, and cellular network power amplifiers.
With ultra-low dielectric constant (Dk) and dissipation factor (Df), Pro-Bond materials are available in multiple thicknesses, with resin-coated film (RCF) or resin-coated copper (RCC)variants, and electrical values as low as Dk 2.85 and Df 0.0016, Ventec Pro-Bond brings design solution to high performance, high-density interconnect PCBs. RCC Bondply is an unreinforced adhesive system coated onto ultra-thin copper foil (1.5-5.0μm supported on an 18μm carrier foil), ideal for high-performance and high-reliability multilayer PCB stack-ups. Also targeting high-performance and high-reliability multilayer PCB stack-ups, RCF Bondply offers the choice of an unreinforced adhesive system coated onto PET or PI film.
The Thermal-Bond family is a range of thermally conductive resin coated films (RCF) that has high Tg (180-210oC), high MOT (150oC) and thermal conductivity as high as 9.0W/m-K in Thermal Bond 7.0F. RCC, ideal for ensuring optimized heat management of high-density, high-frequency or high-powered PCBs, and to manage heat dissipation from embedded components, or metal in board (MiB) technology.
The Pro-Bond and Thermal Bond families of products are natural evolutions for Ventec, utilizing its proprietary film coating technology and expertise, initially developed for producing non-reinforced dielectrics for its best-in-class Tec-Thermal Insulated Metal Substrate (IMS)product range.
Join Ventec at booth 4116, IPC APEX EXPO, in the Anaheim Convention Center, to see the latest innovations in specialty substrate materials, process consumables, and one-stop-shop fabrication services from Ventec Giga Solutions.
