ASC Sunstone Circuits to Exhibit at PCB East 2026
April 26, 2026 | ASC Sunstone CircuitsEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Anaya Vardya, President and CEO of ASC Sunstone Circuits, a leading provider of printed circuit board (PCB) fabrication and assembly solutions, announced that the company will be exhibiting at PCB East 2026, taking place April 29 at the DCU Convention Center.
PCB East continues to be one of the industry’s most respected events, bringing together PCB designers, engineers, and manufacturers to share ideas, explore new technologies, and collaborate on real-world challenges.
“PCB East is where meaningful conversations happen,” said Vardya. “It’s an opportunity for engineers, designers, and manufacturers to come together, solve problems, and move the industry forward. We’re proud to be part of that.”
ASC Sunstone Circuits will be exhibiting at Booth 310.
In addition to exhibiting, ASC Sunstone will be represented in the conference program. Matt Stevenson, Director of Operations, will speak in a technical session titled:
“From Idea to In-Hand: A Real-World Journey Through PCB Design, Fabrication, and Assembly.”
Stevenson will be joined by industry experts Vitaly Michalchuk and Geoffrey Hazelett. The session will walk through the full lifecycle of a PCB-from initial concept through design, fabrication, and final assembly-highlighting how collaboration across each stage leads to better outcomes, faster timelines, and higher-quality products.
“Design, fabrication, and assembly don’t work in isolation,” said Stevenson. “When those pieces come together early and stay aligned, everything works better. That’s what we’ll be sharing in this session.”
Attendees visiting ASC Sunstone Circuits at PCB East will learn more about the company’s capabilities, including quick-turn prototyping, advanced fabrication, and integrated assembly services designed to help customers move faster and with more confidence.

I-Connect007 Editor’s Choice: Five Must-Reads for the Week
05/15/2026 | Nolan Johnson, I-Connect007When you work in the news business, even in trade media, you can never really get that far away from it. We never want to miss something important. Chances are, even the books we take on our “vacations” end up having to do with the business. For example, my colleague Michelle Te recommended “Creativity, Inc., by Ed Catmull, a business skills study wrapped up in stories about Pixar, which I brought with me on a trip through the stunning U.S. Mountain West.

Rethinking Stackup, Materials, and Tolerances in Modern Designs
05/14/2026 | Kristin Moyer, Global Electronics AssociationThe simple rectangular rigid PCB is becoming increasingly infrequent. This reality necessitates designing with concepts well outside traditional rigid PCB methodologies. For example, the designer of wearable electronics may need to implement conductive fibers integrated into the textile material. Heads-up displays, like those in VR/AR headsets and glasses, require transparent circuitry etched into the display glass. The process of designing without a rule book usually starts with something other than the traditional board design process.
Separating Fact from Fear on the FCC ‘China Lab Ban’
05/14/2026 | Jan Pedersen, NCAB GroupRecent news headlines have suggested that the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has “banned all testing laboratories in China and Hong Kong.” Understandably, this has created concerns around PCB testing, material approvals, UL listings, and the continued use of established test laboratories in Asia. The good news is that for most PCB, PCB material, and PCBA testing, nothing has changed. Let’s separate fact from fear.
