iNEMI Call-for-Participation Webinar: PCB Connector Footprint Tolerance Project
May 4, 2023 | iNEMIEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Size reduction coupled with increased bandwidth is driving new and tighter PCB/FPC (flexible printed circuit) design requirements that may exceed the capability of fabrication processes used for previous generations of I/O connector interfaces. In short, connector land pattern tolerances drive process requirements not previously needed. An understanding of complex process interactions is necessary to identify processes to use, conduct risk assessment, and meet product quality requirements.
The purpose of iNEMI’s PCB Connector Footprint Tolerance project is to define methods that enable designers who are creating products with high I/O bandwidth connector footprints to use the collected industry capability and capacity data to determine appropriate mitigation for the required level of quality for a given product. This fast-turnaround project will:
- Provide better understanding of risks associated with high I/O bandwidth connector footprints
- Enable product designers to conduct risk assessments to determine optimum manufacturing processes to enable PCB suppliers to meet product quality requirements
- Reduce product qualification costs and associated time to market

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.

Podcast Review: On the Line with… Designing for Reality
05/09/2024 | Duane Benson, Positive Edge LLCAs a technologist, if I were forced to come up with just one recurring theme that I might call a professional “nemesis,” it would be the difference between theory and reality. A lot of technology we have at our disposal works well in theory but falls short when reality hits. That’s not the only reason I chose to listen to and review On the Line with… Designing for Reality, featuring a series of conversations with ASC Sunstone’s Matt Stevenson, but it certainly helped that the title caught my eye.
