Problems with non-uniformity in PCB copper pattern plating are typically described as "the FAB problem". But imagine how much time and money one could save when each player in the process (Design -> CAM -> Production) would be able to identify potential problems at an early stage.
What if the PCB pre-production engineer could upfront identify problem areas for the pattern plating and apply auto-intelligent copper balancing, as part of the CAM process to provide a right-first-time panel layout for production? And what if the process engineer has a software that accurately predicted the impact of plating parameters on the layer thickness distribution to increase first pass yields on new PCB parts?

It’s been a busy week here at I-Connect007, an even busier week for PCB designers and manufacturers. This week, we published a variety of articles and news items. In this week’s wrap-up, we have an interview with Rex Rozario that is basically a historical look at the birth of commercial PCB manufacturing, and his involvement with the Rolling Stones in their early days. Then we bring you a look at trends in freight costs, which are—fortunately—heading southward right now.

Many companies in our industry are trying to hire new career-minded, long-term employees, but the hiring process is costly, especially if you hire someone who doesn’t work out. How do you ensure that your new hire stays on and becomes a happy, long-time employee? We recently spoke with Ventec’s Frank Lorentz about his company’s onboarding processes. Frank is the general manager of Ventec’s customer and technical service, warehouse, and quick-turn facility in Germany, and he’s made a career out of logistics. He walks us through his exhaustive onboarding process, which includes letting new hires make mistakes so that they can learn from them.

Semiconductor wafer-testing interface PCBs require a fine-pitch interposer/substrate to transfer a larger pitch (greater than 0.4 mm) to a fine pitch (less than 150 mm). The interposer, which serves as the electromechanical interface between the tester and the wafer requires fine pitch, high pin count, high I/O density, and vertical compliance.
