Today's podcast comes from the Surface Mount Technology Association SMTAI trade show.
As the demand for smaller, faster, and more powerful devices grows, the need for innovative solutions in circuit design has never been greater. UHDI's represent a significant leap forward, allowing for more connections in a smaller space, pushing the boundaries of what's possible in electronic assemblies. But what exactly are ultra-high-density interconnects? Essentially, they refer to circuit boards with incredibly fine pitch interconnects, enabling higher functionality and complexity in much smaller form factors.
This breakthrough is transforming industries like consumer electronics, aerospace, automotive, and medical devices, where space, weight, and performance are critical factors. In this episode, we’ll explore the advantages UHDI's bring to the table, from increased design flexibility and performance to better thermal management. We'll also discuss how UHDI's are set to impact the assembly process. With tighter tolerances and more intricate layouts, UHDI assemblies will require new approaches to assembly, inspection, and reliability testing. To better explain UHDI technology, we’ve put together a panel of subject matter experts. Tara Dunn, director of training and education at SMTA, will moderate a panel discussion with other subject matter experts, including Anaya Vardya, CEO, of American Standard Circuits; Chrys Shea from Shea Engineering Services; Michael Sivigny, owner and general manager of CeTaQ Americas; and Oren Manor, Op-Center core program business director at Siemens Digital Industries Software. UHDI is here! And if you haven’t seen it on your assembly line yet, it’s coming, so stay tuned as we unpack the future of ultra-high-density interconnects and what it means for the next generation of technology.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
