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.

American Standard Circuits Adds Orbotech Advanced PCB Solutions to Increase Quality and Production Throughput
December 17, 2015 | OrbotechEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
ORBOTECH LTD announced today that American Standard Circuits (ASC), a US-based manufacturer of complete advanced circuit board solutions, has successfully integrated Orbotech’s Paragon 9800 Laser Direct Imaging system, Sprint 120 Inkjet legend printer, and a complete Frontline InPlan and InSolver (Impedance Solver) preproduction Engineering solutions into its Chicago production facility.
The new systems are expected to significantly increase productivity and product quality at ASC’s production facility.
- The Paragon 9800 Laser Direct Imaging PCB production system delivers high throughput, accurate registration and superior image quality for ASC’s HDI, flex, rigid-flex and solder mask applications.
- The Sprint 120 Inkjet Printer increases performance, flexibility and cost savings for ASC’s PCB legend printing operations.
- The complete Engineering suite from Frontline, which supports full pre-production automation, enables ASC to develop reliable manufacturing and testing tools that communicate directly to PCB designers and manufacturing machinery, ensuring ASC total control of its processes while lowering its bottom line costs.
“Our strategy is to provide all of our customers the very best PCB products on the market today” said Anaya Vardya, ASC’s CEO. “Whether that be RF or metal backed boards, Flex and Rigid Flex boards or high density PCBs we are in the business of giving our customers the very best so that they can be the very best. On the same token we consider Orbotech to be the very best at what they do and that’s why we have purchased their solutions and extended our long term partnership with them.”
“We are confident that our best-in-class systems and solutions will make ASC’s production process even more efficient, especially when combined with the Orbotech products that are already in place” said Hadar Himmelman, President of Orbotech West.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Gold Mitigation for Class 2 Electronics
05/07/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileIn electronic assemblies, the integrity of connections between components is paramount for ensuring reliability and performance. Gold embrittlement and dissolution are two critical phenomena that can compromise this integrity. Gold embrittlement occurs when gold diffuses into solder joints or alloys, resulting in mechanical brittleness and an increased susceptibility to cracking. Conversely, gold dissolution involves the melting away of gold into solder or metal matrices, potentially altering the electrical and mechanical properties of the joint.
