In our August issue of SMT007 Magazine, "supply pain management" was the topic of discussion. This reminds us of the question that doctors often ask: “What’s your pain level on a scale of 1–10?”
Designers and design engineers have learned to navigate this supply chain craziness, snatching up components that are in short supply or making do with lower-tech parts that are available.
Supply chain management is a dynamic situation, with a number of global forces that can create pain for PCB designers. In this issue, we speak with a variety of experts and bring you up-to-the-minute insight about designing PCBs in this ever-changing environment. Take a breath and prepare to work through the supply pain as you flip through the pages of this month's Design007 Magazine.

HTB3 is now the first and only facility in Europe capable of both developing and producing high-performance IC substrates—the advanced platforms that allow powerful chips to connect, process, and function. As demand for AI, 5G, and other cutting-edge technologies grows, so too does the need for sophisticated substrates like those HTB3 will produce.
