Current IssueDesigning Through the Noise
Our experts discuss the constantly evolving world of RF design, including the many tradeoffs, material considerations, and design tips and techniques that designers and design engineers need to know to succeed in this high-frequency realm.
Learning to Speak ‘Fab’
Our expert contributors clear up many of the miscommunication problems between PCB designers and their fab and assembly stakeholders. As you will see, a little extra planning early in the design cycle can go a long way toward maintaining open lines of communication with the fab and assembly folks.
Training New Designers
Where will we find the next generation of PCB designers and design engineers? Once we locate them, how will we train and educate them? What will PCB designers of the future need to master to deal with tomorrow’s technology?

IPC Offers Training Course on PCB Design for Rigid-Flex Boards
July 14, 2021 | IPCEstimated reading time: Less than a minute

IPC will be conducting a six-week online training course focused on PCB design for rigid-flex boards. The course will provide the skills necessary to effectively implement designs requiring flex and rigid-flex circuits in accordance with product requirements. The online class will also focus on the impact of these designs on manufacturing and assembly techniques, documentation, and manufacturing file generation.
Taught by an IPC-certified industry expert with more than 25 years of experience in the field, the six-week program utilizes interactive webinars, on-demand recorded class sessions, job-specific exercises, and team projects to facilitate mastery of the key concepts required to design flex and rigid-flex boards.
The online program will be held every Monday and Wednesday, from August 30 until October 6, 2021.
