May 1, 2017 | Advanced CircuitsEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Advanced Circuits, has received the 2016 Gold Award from the Metro Wastewater Reclamation District for the tenth year for 100 percent compliance with industrial pre-treatment requirements and a dedicated commitment to environmental excellence. The chemical complexities involved in the fabrication of printed circuit boards, make this prestigious award a significant achievement that puts Advanced Circuits at the forefront of PCB manufactures in North America.
The company has made significant investments to ensure redundancy in its water treatment systems with two main ion exchange units with a full resin rebuild and a third ion exchange unit for its EDTAbased copper waste stream. Advanced Circuits goes above and beyond industry standards to maximize efforts for preventing pollution and minimizing waste by recycling all scrap metal, waste copper etch solutions, reducing water usage with counter flow rinses and automated sensors, along with other environmentally conscious measures.

Heavy Copper PCBs: Bridging the Gap Between Design and Fabrication, Part 1
04/01/2024 | Yash Sutariya, Saturn Electronics ServicesThey call me Sparky. This is due to my talent for getting shocked by a variety of voltages and because I cannot seem to keep my hands out of power control cabinets. While I do not have the time to throw the knife switch to the off position, that doesn’t stop me from sticking screwdrivers into the fuse boxes. In all honesty, I’m lucky to be alive. Fortunately, I also have a talent for building high-voltage heavy copper circuit boards. Since this is where I spend most of my time, I can guide you through some potential design for manufacturability (DFM) hazards you may encounter with heavy copper design.
