Exploring PCB West 2018: Unveiling Our Innovative 1-Mil Trace and Space Rights-Granted Technology
Sierra Circuits is making waves in the printed circuit board (PCB) industry with its groundbreaking 1-mil trace and space technology, unveiled at this year's PCB West conference. This advanced manufacturing capability sets a new standard for PCB fabrication, offering significantly higher circuit density and precision.
At the heart of the new technology is the ability to achieve 1-mil (0.001 inch or 25.4 microns) minimum trace width and spacing. This level of fine-line PCB fabrication is a notable advance in precision and process control, as traditional PCB manufacturing typically involves trace widths and spaces of 3 mils or greater.
Sierra Circuits' commitment to serving markets requiring ultra-fine geometries, such as aerospace, medical devices, and high-speed electronics, is evident in this breakthrough. The 1-mil trace and space technology enables them to produce PCBs with extremely fine traces and narrow gaps, improving signal integrity and miniaturization possibilities in complex circuits.
Amit Bahl, Sierra's Director of Sales and Marketing, emphasized the wide-ranging implications of this technology. He stated that the new 1-mil technology will open up possibilities for every industry, not just consumer industries.
In addition to the technological showcase, Sierra Circuits is also revamping its HDI Design Guide for PCB West, featuring tips from industry experts like Rick Hartley, Eric Bogatin, and Happy Holden. The booth at PCB West will offer a 3D virtual tour of Sierra's manufacturing and PCB assembly buildings, accessible via Oculus headsets.
The conference schedule for PCB West should be checked before visiting. The new technology will be soft-launched at PCB West during an exclusive presentation in a private room. A VIP reception will also be held, where Sierra's new technology will be presented, questions will be answered, and champagne and hors d'oeuvres will be served.
Sierra will sponsor a lunch on September 13 at the Santa Clara Convention Center. Interviews with speakers like Simon Fried, Hemant Shah, Humair Mandavia, and Pete Waddell will be available on Sierra's blog and YouTube channel after the event. The 1-mil trace and space technology is expected to be a major highlight of Sierra Circuits' 2018 main theme at PCB West: HDI PCB.
Interested visitors can book a real-life tour of Sierra's Sunnyvale facilities by sending an email to hayleyp@our website. Visitors can also virtually tour Sierra's drilling area, cross-section lab, lamination area, and view machines like the Juki Pick-n-Place. The 4K videos featuring the PCB West speakers will be available shortly after the event on Sierra's blog and YouTube channel.
The 1-mil trace and space technology, pioneered by Sierra Circuits, is a significant advance in controlled impedance technology, offering unprecedented precision and miniaturization possibilities in complex circuits. This technology, showcased at PCB West, is not confined to consumer industries alone, as Amit Bahl, Sierra's Director of Sales and Marketing, stated.
