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.

Indium to Showcase High-Performance AI Application Solutions at SEMICON SEA 2026
May 1, 2026 | Indium CorporationEstimated reading time: 1 minute
As a leading provider of advanced materials solutions for today’s demanding AI applications, Indium Corporation® will feature its high-reliability product portfolio at SEMICON SEA 2026, May 5-7, in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Company products to be highlighted include the following:
- Formic Acid Soldering Technology (FAST) is an ideal reflow method for power device packaging. Product offerings, including preforms, InFORMS®, and novel solder pastes, enable high-reliability, flux-free soldering that is ideal for efficient manufacturing of next-generation power electronics.
- Heat-Spring® is a compressible, non-reflow metal thermal interface material (TIM) ideal for TIM2 applications. These indium-containing TIMs offer superior thermal conductivity over non-metals, with pure indium metal delivering 86W/mK in all planes. Because of its solid metal state, Heat-Spring® avoids pump-out and bake-out problems and offers a sustainable solution through the company’s metals and compounds reclaim and recycle program.
- Durafuse® LT is an award-winning solder paste alloy system with versatile characteristics that provide energy savings and high reliability in low-temperature step soldering. It is ideal for assemblies with broad temperature gradients and large BGAs with complex warpage profiles. Durafuse® LT delivers superior thermal cycling and drop shock performance, outperforming conventional low-temperature solders like BiSn or BiSnAg alloys, and can outperform SAC305 with optimal process setup.
- InFORCE®29 is a range of pressure Cu sinter pastes for applications where high reliability and high thermal conductivity are critical. Applications for InFORCE®29 include die-attach for Si and SiC power devices and substrate-attach of power modules directly to coolers.
- SiPaste® series is specifically designed for fine feature printing with fine powders ranging from Type 5 to Type 8. They help Avoid the Void®, reduce slumping, and demonstrate consistent superior printing performance. These materials offer optimum transfer efficiency with consistent printing stability after continuous use and a long stencil life.
- NC-809 is a no-clean, ultra-low residue, ball-attach flux. Its dual-purpose engineering provides high-tack characteristics for flip-chip applications with strong wetting power for ball-attach applications.
To learn more about Indium Corporation’s high-performance materials solutions, meet with our experts at SEMICON SEA 2006, booth #2269.

Single Pair Ethernet (SPE): A Valuable Option for Modern Designs
04/20/2026 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007When it comes to designing PCBs and full systems for increasingly complex electronics hardware, who doesn’t want to reduce complexity and cost? Single-Pair Ethernet (SPE) has emerged as a solution and is gaining rapid attention across industrial electronics and PCB design because it enables Ethernet communication over a single twisted pair, replacing the traditional two- or four-pair cabling used in standard Ethernet networks. This seemingly simple shift has significant implications for designers: smaller connectors, reduced cable weight, longer reach, and the ability to carry both data and power over a single pair.
