FEATURES

Packaging
A New Approach for Finer Pitch Package-on-Package in Mobile Devices
µPILR technology can reduce the standoff between the PCB and the bottom package and increase mechanical board-level reliability, improving drop-test performance.
by Manisha Sharma

HDI Design and Fab
HDI Via Structures Effect on PCB Design Flexibility, Constraints and Cost
Microvias are more reliable than through holes, so adding HDI to the design can improve reliability and reduce cost.
by Happy Holden

Plating
The Fluid Mechanic Modeling of PCB Plating Solutions
Aspect ratio is important in defining the flow rate through a hole, but hole diameter and the agitation speed are equally significant.
by J. Lee Parker

Design Tools
