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.

The European Chips Skills Academy (ECSA), an EU-funded project coordinated by SEMI Europe, in collaboration with industry partners AENEAS, EPoSS, and INSIDE, has announced the launch of the ECS Summer School 2025. The five-day event themed 'Fascinating Electronics for a Cool World’ is designed to inspire and attract new talent to Europe's electronic components and systems sector. This year’s session will take place at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics in Hungary from August 24-29, 2025.
The program will feature interactive workshops, expert-led discussions, networking sessions, and practical insights into cutting-edge microelectronics and semiconductor technologies. Students enrolled in STEM-related fields from universities across the EU or associated countries are invited to apply until 30 April 2025.
"Initiatives like the ECS Summer School are crucial for inspiring and nurturing the next generation of talent fueling the talent pipeline," said Laith Altimime, President of SEMI Europe.
By engaging directly with leading experts, students will acquire skills and insights essential for their future roles in Europe's rapidly evolving technology landscape.
"The ECS Summer School is an excellent gateway for students to gain practical knowledge and establish valuable industry connections,” said Patrick Cogez, Technical Director at AENEAS and lead partner in ECSA for the organisation of the Summer School.
Applications are now open to STEM students enrolled at universities in the EU and associated countries who have completed at least two years of undergraduate studies and have at least one more year of study ahead. The ECS Summer School 2025 is entirely free for selected participants, with applications closing on 30 April 2025 at 17:00 CET.
