Insulectro to Host OEM Forum ‘Accelerate Development With Accurate Design Data’
November 2, 2020 | InsulectroEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Insulectro, the largest distributor of materials for use in the printed circuit board and printed electronics industries, will host an OEM FORUM on Thursday, November 5, at 11:05 am Pacific. The topic is “Accelerate Development with Accurate Design Data.”
Join this 45 minute (or so) session to learn how timely PCB fabrication and assembly can maximize reliability and yield. The session is hosted by veteran technical account manager Ron Murdock and will feature Insulectro co-panelists Mike Creeden and Chris Hunrath.
An immensely popular team, Creeden (CID+ MIT and Technology Director for Design Education) will present the design argument while Vice President of Technology Chris Hunrath CID+ will reinforce with material science perspectives. Hunrath and Creeden have been teaming up for several recent webinars and lunch’n’learns gaining enthusiastic responses. They are Better Together!
This Forum should be of particular interest to OEMs, engineers, and designers looking for superior results from PCB materials. Registration is required to join the sessions and attendees will need to access the Zoom application or website to participate.
The forum will be conducted on the Zoom teleconferencing platform and registration can accessed here.

The Shaughnessy Report: Unlock Your High-speed Material Constraints
05/15/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy -- Column: The Shaughnessy ReportThe world of PCB materials used to be a fairly simple one. It was divided into two groups: the “traditional” laminates, often called FR-4, and the high-speed laminates developed especially for high-speed PCBs. These were two worlds that usually didn’t collide. But then traditional laminates started getting better, and high-speed designers and design engineers took notice and started to reconsider what FR-4 could be used for.
Standard of Excellence Collaboration—The Right Path to Innovation
05/15/2024 | Anaya Vardya -- Column: Standard of ExcellenceNow more than ever, as new and innovative technologies for printed circuit boards are in demand, we need collaboration between PCB designers, fabricators, and assemblers. Close partnerships with PCB designers and assemblers are key to developing and producing PCBs with boards with new and innovative technology. These collaborative partnerships, along with the partnership with the end customers, are more critical than ever before.

Breaking High-speed Material Constraints: Design007 Magazine — May 2024
05/14/2024 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamDo you need specialty materials for your high-speed designs? Maybe not. Improvements in resins mean designers of high-speed boards can sometimes use traditional laminate systems instead of high-speed materials, saving time and money while streamlining the fab process. In the May 2024 issue of Design007 Magazine, our contributors explain how to avoid overconstraining your materials when working with high-speed boards.
