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.

GreenSource Fabrication to Exhibit at PCB East 2026
April 23, 2026 | GreenSource FabricationEstimated reading time: 1 minute
GreenSource Fabrication, the N. American industry’s most advanced, state-of-the-art printed circuit board manufacturer, today announced that it will be exhibiting at PCB East 2026, on Wednesday April 29,2026 at the DCU Convention Center 50 Foster Street in Worcester, MA.
Attendees can visit GreenSource Fabrication at Booth 611 to experience firsthand how next-generation manufacturing is redefining speed, sustainability, and performance in PCB fabrication.
At this year’s event, GreenSource Fabrication will showcase its heavily automated, Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) equipped, manufacturing facility—designed to deliver high-quality, production-ready PCBs with unmatched efficiency and environmental responsibility. Engineers, designers, and procurement leaders will gain insight into how GreenSource is eliminating traditional trade-offs between speed, cost, and sustainability.
“PCB East is where technical collaborations happen,” said Megan Teta, Strategic Account Manager at GreenSource PCB . “If you are designing next-generation electronics and want a manufacturing partner that matches your ambition, you need to stop by Booth 611. We’re not just building boards—we’re changing how they’re built.”
Visitors to the booth will learn how GreenSource Fabrication supports rapid prototyping, seamless transition to production, and advanced material capabilities—all while maintaining a ZLD wastewater treatment system. The company’s integrated, technology-first approach enables customers to move faster, reduce risk, and bring better products to market.
PCB East 2026 is one of the premier East Coast events for the electronics industry, bringing together innovators, engineers, and decision-makers focused on PCB design, fabrication, and assembly.
If you are attending PCB East 2026, make Booth 611 your first stop. Meet the team. Ask the hard questions. See what the future of PCB manufacturing looks like.

I-Connect007 Editor’s Choice: Five Must-Reads for the Week
05/08/2026 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007This week, I’ve selected some outstanding interviews that you’ll want to take note of. First, is a roundtable discussion featuring three dynamic industry cybersecurity experts. Please watch this important discussion that affects us all. Following that, I spotlight the IPC-2581 Consortium, which explains why IPC-2581 is the standard to replace Gerber data for manufacturing. Next, I am including my interview with PCBAA and AAM, who collaborated to release a short documentary on U.S. PCB manufacturing.
A Necessary Shift From Gerber to IPC-2581
05/07/2026 | Tracy Riggan, Global Electronics AssociationIPC-2581 is an open, vendor-neutral data exchange standard developed by the Global Electronics Association to streamline the exchange of PCB design information across fabrication, assembly, and test. It replaces multiple legacy formats—including industry standards, Gerber, and ODB++—with a single, comprehensive, XML-based dataset that captures all manufacturing details.
ViaSat-3 F3 Satellite Successfully Launches from Kennedy Space Center
05/04/2026 | BoeingBoeing mission controllers confirmed that the ViaSat-3 F3 (VS-3 F3) satellite is healthy in orbit following its successful launch aboard a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket at 10:13 a.m. ET from Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Florida.
Microchip Expands Post-Quantum Root of Trust Controllers
04/29/2026 | MicrochipAs the industry embarks on the transition to post‑quantum cryptography (PQC), Microchip Technology is expanding its portfolio of Trust Shield, PQC‑ready devices with the TS1800 Platform Root of Trust controller and the TS50x secure boot controller.
Is China Plus One Still Happening in the PCB Industry?
04/28/2026 | Manfred Huschka, Manfred Huschka Management Consulting (Shenzhen) Ltd.For much of the past five years, China Plus One has been shorthand for supply-chain diversification: reducing dependency on mainland China by adding manufacturing capacity elsewhere in Asia. In the PCB industry, however, in early 2026, it is more nuanced. It looks less like a clean geographic shift and more like a layered, capital-intensive rebalancing of global capacity, one that still leaves China deeply embedded at the center.
