Connect the Dots: Proactive Controlled Impedance

May 29, 2025 | Matt Stevenson, Connect the Dots

From data centers to smartphones, designers know that the ohms have it. Getting impedance right ensures all-important signal integrity and delivers high-performing boards. Our designers understand the importance of controlled impedance, but not everyone addresses it in their designs. The most common and important controlled impedance types we see include microstrip, stripline, embedded microstrip, and differential pairs.

Standards: The Roadmap for Your Ideal Data Package

May 29, 2025 | Andy Shaughnessy, Design007 Magazine

In this interview, IPC design instructor Kris Moyer explains how standards can help you ensure that your data package has all the information your fabricator and assembler need to build your board the way you designed it, allowing them to use their expertise. As Kris says, even with IPC standards, there’s still an art to conveying the right information in your documentation.
