Understanding Design for Display Electronics

August 12, 2026 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007 Magazine

For Kristin Moyer, designing display electronics is all about scale. As displays shrink in size and grow in resolution, every engineering decision becomes more demanding. In this interview, the Global Electronics Association design instructor explains the strengths and limitations of today’s dominant display technologies—LCD and LED—as well as the emerging role of AR/VR displays. Kristin also explores the PCB design, manufacturability, and reliability challenges that accompany each.

In an exciting new column for I-Connect007 Magazine, a team of application engineers from Flexible Circuit Technologies will draw on decades of experience designing and manufacturing flex and rigid-flex circuits to offer practical guidance to help PCB designers make better engineering decisions. Mark Finstad, Chris Clark, Terrill Schmidt, Dan Skweres, and Zack Schaner will rotate authoring the new column, called Flex Connections, which begins in the August issue, with Dan drawing on his many years of experience to explain why just because you can do something in PCB design, doesn’t mean you should.
