Photonics Comes to PCB Microelectronics Assembly
Photonics has been around for many years. Today, that technology is beginning to make its presence known in PCB microelectronics assembly and in a variety of new applications. But we need to step back a bit and revisit reasons why photonics is so vital to meet today’s demands for increasingly higher speeds in advanced systems. […]
Continue Reading...OEMs launching micro-miniature products and relying on PCB microelectronics assembly and manufacturing to help produce those products may find themselves in a quandary. Let’s think about this. The industry standard for accuracy right now for placement of MEMS devices, sensors, biosensors, or other kinds of pressure sensors is five-micron placement accuracy on a very small […]
