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.

JAVAD EMS to Add New ESPEC Temperature Chamber to Support Growing Mil/Aero Work
April 28, 2026 | JAVAD EMSEstimated reading time: 1 minute
JAVAD EMS (JEMS), a leading global EMS company that provides low to medium volume, high-mix applications, has ordered a new ESPEC EGNZ28-15NW temperature cycling chamber to expand its environmental testing capabilities as demand continues to grow in the military and aerospace sectors.
The chamber supports a temperature range from -70°C to 180°C and faster ramp rates of up to 15°C per minute under load, giving JEMS the ability to meet newer program requirements and shorten overall test cycles.
“We’re seeing more programs that call for tighter testing requirements and increased throughput,” said Gary Walker, President of JAVAD EMS. “This equipment helps us keep pace with those requirements and gives us more flexibility in how we schedule and run tests.”
The ESPEC Global-N chamber offers a temperature range from -70°C to 180°C and a large 28 cubic foot workspace, allowing JEMS to handle complex assemblies and larger builds. Features such as dual-zone airflow, precise temperature control, and a robust refrigeration system support consistent, repeatable test results.
JAVAD EMS focuses on low- to medium-volume, high-mix manufacturing for applications where reliability matters, including aerospace, subsea, satellite, and secure communications. The company supports complex assemblies with capabilities such as fine-pitch and high-density PCBA, along with advanced inspection including 3D solder paste inspection, automated optical inspection, and 3D X-ray.
Adding this chamber strengthens JEMS’ ability to validate products under extreme conditions before they move into the field, while maintaining full traceability throughout the build and test process.
JEMS expects to continue expanding its environmental testing capacity, with plans to add another high-capacity temperature chamber later this year.

American Made Advocacy: Rebuilding America’s Military Stockpiles Begins With Microelectronics
04/28/2026 | Shane Whiteside -- Column: American Made AdvocacyCurrent world events demonstrate the fragility of long-distance supply chains transiting multiple zones of conflict. The U.S. military is currently drawing down supplies of key munitions and other electronic systems at unprecedented rates.1Every one of those systems is powered by printed circuit boards. The American PCB industry has kept pace with peacetime demand for the defense industry, but will now be called upon to increase production to a wartime footing at rates not seen in decades.
