San Francisco Circuits (SFC), a provider of PCB (printed circuit board) fabrication, assembly and test services for unmanned systems and robotic platforms, has released an article detailing new technology advances in microelectronics. As PCB packages keep getting smaller, and new electronic designs demand denser circuit boards, precision in microelectronics becomes even more important. Proper use of microelectronics best-practices in PCB production, including design, layout, fabrication and PCB assembly, ensures that devices will function well even with reduced form factors.

The article covers:
- Facets of traditional designs such as plated through-hole (PTH) components and surface mount technology (SMT)
- Ball grid array (BGA) packages and microvias
- Connectors in through-hole technologies, such as USB-C
- High density interconnects (HDI) and design considerations for achieving thin linewidths
- Typical implementations of microvias in eight-layer PCBs
