Today’s electronic packages have high clock speeds (multi-gigahertz range), fine pin densities (below 0.4-mm pitch), and high pin counts (over 2000). When assembled onto a printed-circuit board (PCB), ...

Eurocircuits, a European producer of small batch PCBs, has teamed up with Elsyca, a Belgian research company specialising in advanced electrochemical modelling, to implement PCB plating using Elsyca’s ...

For the few double-sided PCBs we’ve actually etched at home we simply soldered a piece of wire to either side of a via and clipped off the excess. But if you want to go the extra mile you can’t beat ...

Conductive filament exists, but it takes more than that to 3D print something like a circuit board. The main issue is that traces made from conductive filament are basically resistors; they don’t act ...

Preventing plating and soldering voids is about testing new manufacturing processes and analyzing the results. Plating and soldering voids usually have an identifiable cause, such as the type of ...

Gold plating is a term that is generally used to describe a thin gold coating on an object. As a matter of fact, gold can be deposited from a solution, by using three similar processes. These include: ...

Intelligent Asia Thailand 2026, Southeast Asia's leading B2B platform for PCB manufacturing and industrial automation, will take place from 11 to 13 March 2026 at Event Hall 98, BITEC, Bangkok. The ...
