Current IssueThe Designer of the Future
Our expert contributors peer into their crystal balls and offer their thoughts on the designers and design engineers of tomorrow, and what their jobs will look like.
Advanced Packaging and Stackup Design
This month, our expert contributors discuss the impact of advanced packaging on stackup design—from SI and DFM challenges through the variety of material tradeoffs that designers must contend with in HDI and UHDI.
Rules of Thumb
This month, we delve into rules of thumb—which ones work, which ones should be avoided. Rules of thumb are everywhere, but there may be hundreds of rules of thumb for PCB design. How do we separate the wheat from the chaff, so to speak?

American Standard Circuits Exhibits at 2023 Del Mar Electronics and Manufacturing Show
April 17, 2023 | American Standard CircuitsEstimated reading time: 1 minute
American Standard Circuits will once again be exhibiting at the Del Mar Electronics and Manufacturing Show on Wednesday, April 26 and Thursday, April 27 at the Delmar Fairgrounds in San Diego, California.
President and CEO Anaya Vardya commented, “Del Mar is one of our favorite smaller shows. It’s a great opportunity to talk with both current and potential customers as well as meeting up and comparing notes with our competitors. So much has been going on with ASC and the industry this year and this show provides the platform to share and discuss. This year Dave Lackey, our Vice President of Business Development, will be presenting “Flexible Circuit Design and Manufacturing” in Mission Towers - Room C on Wednesday at 2:00 PM. Dave has a wealth of knowledge to share on this topic, we highly recommend that people attend his presentation.
Meet with American Standard Circuits on the show floor in Booth #300.

Happy’s Tech Talk #36: The LEGO Principle of Optical Assembly
01/14/2025 | Happy Holden -- Column: Happy’s Tech TalkDr. Steven Case of Avanti Optics Corporation once advocated a new approach to photonic assembly, based on the LEGO principle. He compared today’s erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) technology to the crude point-to-point wiring of early model circuit boards, which gave way to modern circuit boards that could be considered prefabricated interconnects.

Flexible Thinking: Another PCB Design Paradigm Shift in the Works
01/09/2025 | Joe Fjelstad -- Column: Flexible ThinkingWe all read from the same technology scriptures and sing from the same design hymnals that serve the global congregation of printed circuit manufacturers and users, though there are still a few iconoclasts and heretics to challenge them in the service of largely positive change. Even subtle changes are hard to effect. People, especially those in manufacturing, do not like change because it disrupts the manufacturing floor routine. However, change, as even the ancient philosophers knew, is constant and required for continued growth and evolution.
Designers Notebook: Impact of Advanced Semiconductor Packaging on PCB Stackup
01/07/2025 | Vern Solberg -- Column: Designer's NotebookTo accommodate new generations of high I/O semiconductor packaging, printed circuit board fabrication technology has had to undergo significant changes in both the process methods and the criteria for base material selection and construction sequence (stackup). Many of the new high-function multi-core semiconductor package families require more terminals than their predecessors, requiring a significantly narrower terminal pitch. Interconnecting these very fine-pitch, high I/O semiconductors to the PCB is made possible by an intermediate element referred to as an interposer.
