One style of low-profile keypad assembly is the conventional flexible membrane keypad where the switch circuitry is screen-printed. Silver conductive polymer inks are printed onto 1.25 mm (0.005 inches) polyester sheets. Two opposing polyester circuit layers are separated by a thin adhesive/polyester layer with a hole at the switch location. Finger pressure at the switch location deforms the front circuit layer through the spacer hole and completes the circuit to the bottom circuit layer. Tactile feel is provided by a metal snap dome or an embossed dome formed in a polyester sheet, sometimes called poly-domes.
Since the flexible printed membrane switch assembly is a polyester sheet and layered adhesive. The switch assembly is not self-supporting and must be mounted to a rigid support. A common support is a flat metal plate such as aluminum. Large dimension flexible printed membrane switch keypads mounted to metal plates are common in the industry. Larger membrane switches with metal plates can suffer performance and construction integrity problems when used in less than ideal environments.
The document discusses various printed circuit board surface finishes, including their advantages and disadvantages. HASL is the most common surface finish but is not suitable for fine pitch components or RoHS compliance. Alternative finishes like immersion tin, OSP, and ENIG provide flatter surfaces and RoHS compliance but have other tradeoffs in cost, complexity of processing, and susceptibility to damage or corrosion. The key is selecting the appropriate surface finish based on the specific performance requirements of the project while considering both functionality and cost effectiveness. Consulting a PCB fabricator can help ensure the right combination of surface finish and material.
Custom low-profile keypad assemblies with the right combination of material and construction choices can provide high reliability user interface keypads. Prepare to discover the differences between high reliability custom keypad assemblies and those keypad assemblies which fail prematurely.

Why spend the time and money to develop and manufacture a custom lithium-ion battery pack when off-the-shelf battery packs are radially available? Custom battery packs can be designed to fit the unique needs of an end product’s size and shape, temperature, power, voltage, runtime, and interface requirements, which generic battery packs cannot meet.
Supply chain issues can be avoided with better control of all the components and “end-of-life” surprises prevented. Custom battery packs come with a host of design and manufacturing challenges. Each battery is unique and must be designed and fully tested for the intended application.
In addition, regulatory testing is mandatory to ensure that the new design can safely withstand environmental abuses expected and unexpected in the field.

Over the last several years, the technical complexity of printed circuit boards that we fabricate on a day-to-day basis has risen exponentially. Many companies embrace this complexity, but for customers, the overall financial risk increases dramatically.
Printed circuit boards are a complex product that requires many steps to produce, and all customer’s specifications are a little different. This requires a PCB fabricator to have a very clear process and understanding of how these requirements affect production.
In this webinar, we share with you how to better understand what each of the requirements means for you and the fabricator, how to ensure that you are getting exactly what you specified and how to protect your data from falling into the wrong hands.

CNC machining costs will always vary depending on many different factors, including the length of time required to complete the project, materials specified, as well as the type of machine used, such as 3- and 5-axis machines.
CNC machining is an integral part of many industries, getting the tools and parts you need with an accuracy that is difficult to achieve. Businesses are often looking for ways to trim their budgets; reducing CNC machining costs is no exception. If you are interested in CNC machining cost reduction, you need to understand the factors that impact the cost of CNC parts — machining time, start-up costs, material costs, and more.
In this webinar, we review some of the biggest factors that can affect your CNC machining costs and specific ways to help you reduce costs on your CNC machined parts.

There are many special features that are designed into the printed circuit board (PCB) that will increase the number of processing steps that it takes to complete the order. The combination of features can add additional cost to the raw PCB and increase the lead time to process.
When considering a PCB design and layout or redesign, it would be advantageous to consult with experts. Your printed circuit board supplier should have engineering resources to consult and review preliminary information and be able to assist with design suggestions.
In this webinar, we discuss multilayer features for printed circuit boards that add cost and processing time. We will also look at base costing materials, copper weights, common cost adders, plating finishes, processing, less common features, and more.

As you know, component shortages are impacting product lead times around the world. Advanced smart battery packs and chargers are no exception. Over recent years, electronic circuit functionality has been consolidated into smaller ICs that can manage a lot of functionality into small, easy-to-use single ICs. Unfortunately, these ICs are single-sourced ICs with lead times stretching beyond 80 weeks. These extremely long lead times can kill projects and companies.
In this webinar, we reviewed methods that we use to minimize or eliminate these single-sourced components used in battery pack manufacturing. Along with ways to layout circuit boards to allow component flexibility preventing redesigns, and methods to use firmware to reduce dependencies on sole-sourced parts.
For more information on our custom battery pack solutions, visit https://www.epectec.com/batteries.
Critical flex and rigid-flex circuit applications often must pass very stringent electromagnetic (EM) or radio frequency (RF) interference requirements. This type of interference, if absorbed or emitted, can negatively impact the functionality and reliability of the end product when in use.
To prevent this from occurring, the circuit design must incorporate shielding to eliminate either the absorption or transmission of EM or RF interference. For flex and rigid-flex PCB designs, there are two types of shielding solutions that can be applied, but which is best suited will depend upon other design requirements.
In this webinar, we review shielding methods and how to implement them in a flex or rigid-flex PCB design to ensure interference free operation of your design.

The document provides a checklist of information needed before starting a PCB design project. It discusses the importance of including schematic files, bills of materials, production timelines, certifications required, and delivery expectations. Providing all relevant design details upfront helps the PCB manufacturer properly scope the project, prevent issues, and ensure a successful design and manufacturing process.
In order to properly manufacture mil/aero, flex/rigid-flex PCBs, and RF/Microwave PCBs, significant investment in specialized equipment to meet the demanding tolerances required in these applications.
COVID-19 has turned the world of manufacturing, and everything else, upside down. For printed circuit boards, it was especially painful. Close to 75% of all PCBs are made in Asia, and this made it even more difficult to manage. Currently, less than 5% of all PCBs are made in the U.S., and that is not going to change anytime soon as our cost base is much too high to be price competitive. It is also very difficult to get a new site permitted given the type and amount of chemicals that go into PCB manufacturing.
With this being the reality that we live in at the moment, we must truly understand all of the aspects of the PCB supply chain in Asia (not just China) and how to position ourselves with a partner that has made the significant financial investment in a resilient supply chain.
In this webinar, we reviewed some topics we have been asked to elaborate on by our customers, along with managing your freight costs, delivery times, laminate availability, and stocking programs we offer.

These highly-customized heaters are engineered specifically to meet your specific requirements. They’re thin, bendable, and can be designed using the most complex shapes, geometries, and curves to fit almost any type of application.
The document discusses key considerations for designing lithium-ion batteries for portable devices. It emphasizes that specifications are important to outline physical, environmental, and performance requirements upfront to guide development. Physical constraints, operating ranges, safety systems, and smart battery capabilities that provide information to devices affect costs. A good specification treats the battery design like a blueprint and ensures all necessary factors are addressed to reduce risks.
Have you ever designed a PCB and sent it out for quotation, only to receive a series of no-quotes or deviation requests from potential suppliers? If so, then you may be interested to find out why this happens and how to minimize the likelihood that it will happen again in the future.
Good circuit board design practices are essential, of course, but it is also helpful to understand your suppliers’ capabilities so that you can anticipate which features might make your high-tech PCB more difficult to build.
In this webinar as we discuss some of the key requirements you should know about your PCB suppliers’ capabilities to ensure your high-tech PCB is manufactured properly in a timely manner.

The flex and rigid-flex manufacturing process is inherently more complex with more process steps than those found in a rigid PCB of similar technology. When it comes to flex PCB designs, this is driven by the difference in materials combined with the many added items or features that can be incorporated into a design.
These include stiffeners (of varying materials / thickness / locations), pressure sensitive adhesives, shield layers, strain reliefs, etc. For rigid-flex designs this can become additionally complex as all the available flex items are combined with all the technical items found in rigid PCBs. These items potentially interact and can negatively impact the efficiency of the production process.
Streamlining is defined as making a process more efficient and effective. Having a design that streamlines the production process will have the benefits of improved delivery times, reduced part cost, improved manufacturing yield, and even potentially improved long-term part reliability.
In this webinar where we review the many areas of flex and rigid-flex designs that can impact how streamlined a design is for production.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Design is Critical
Intelligent Power Management Becomes Mandatory
– Today's portable devices can combine wireless communication,
navigation, touch screens and other technologies which require increased
power consumption as:
• The size of the display and the graphics operations of portable devices are
increasing by a large amount.
• New process technologies for the processors operate at higher frequencies.
• Portable devices become smaller and slimmer which requires a reduction of
the number and the size of the components.
• Customers expect extended battery life, so maximum efficiency is essential
• Often the voltage source is “incompatible” with
the load. A buffer needs to be placed
between the source and load to regulate
the voltage and/or current to reduce power
loss.
