Current IssueVoices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.
It's Show Time!
In this month’s issue of PCB007 Magazine we reimagine the possibilities featuring stories all about IPC APEX EXPO 2025—covering what to look forward to, and what you don’t want to miss.

SouthCom Technologies Wins Distributor of the Year for Pulsonix
September 2, 2015 | PulsonixEstimated reading time: 1 minute
WestDev Ltd., the EDA company delivering technology-leading PCB design solutions, has named SouthCom Technologies the winner of its Distributor of the Year award.
SouthCom Technologies’ development and growth of Pulsonix in the North American market since their introduction in 2012 has brought a significant sales and service representation not previously seen for the product range.
“Since the appointment of SouthCom in North America three years ago, we have seen exponential growth in North America. Year-on-year sales have accelerated beyond our expectations as more and more engineers come into contact with Pulsonix,” said Marketing Director Bob Williams. “We attribute this to the hard effort from those both at SouthCom Technologies and at the Pulsonix development HQ in the United Kingdom. We are at a stage now where we have a synergistic process between SouthCom Technologies and those within Pulsonix, I believe this is truly benefiting our North American customers. They are seeing the true benefits of Pulsonix, and this is not just down to the software itself, it’s the people within the company. Together with SouthCom, we are bringing ourselves closer to the end user, listening to them and acting on their suggestions straight away.”
Jim Southward, founder and CEO of SouthCom Technologies, commented, “Sales have grown significantly for us in North America. Pulsonix fits well in the market with its very attractive price to performance ratio. Our working methodologies and practices along with extensive knowledge of the EDA market have enabled us to penetrate into North America with significant success. Our ethos of providing high quality solutions, be they products or services has been recognised with this award from WestDev.”

Driving Sustainability in PCB Design
04/24/2025 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007Filbert (Fil) Arzola is an electrical engineer at Raytheon. He’s smart, entertaining, and passionate about PCB design. As it turns out, he’s also passionate about “Mother Earth,” as he calls her. Born and raised in Southern California, he freely admits that he turns the water off when he brushes his teeth and yells at his brother for throwing batteries in the garbage. But when looking at the issue of sustainability and PCB design, he urges his audiences to ponder what sustainability looks like. Can PCB designers, he asks, make any impact on sustainability at all?
