BANNOCKBURN, IL – A new PCB roadmap outlines the needs for US military contractors over the next few years.
 
The roadmap is intended to facilitate better communication between the PCB industry, OEMs designing and manufacturing military hardware, the US Department of Defense and the military electronics supply chain. It was developed with input from top military OEMs under the auspices of an IPC task force. 
 
The task force, composed of North American manufacturers, developed the roadmap to assist the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division in identifying technologies, designs and materials that will be required to meet future DoD and OEM needs. Crane has been appointed by the DoD as its PCB Executive Agent.
 
The IPC Printed Board Defense Roadmap will be released a Dec. 9-10 IPC meeting in Washington, DC.

Improving Fabrication Yields
How the CAM engineer can make the difference.  Embedded in fabrication planning is calculating panel size, checking layer stackup information, reviewing expected yields, reviewing board construction and verifying impedance control calculations. Typical panel sizes are 9 x 12˝, 12 x 18˝, 18 x 24˝, or 18 x 36˝. A number of factors need to be considered when calculating panel size. For instance, consider a small board of 25 sq. in. A relatively high number of this small board can be panelized...
