Ventec International Group Co., Ltd. announced that Alun Morgan, chairman of the EIPC, has been named technology ambassador for Ventec International Group. In support of a common mission to promote the next generation’s progress in PCB material design, Alun will apply his extensive background and expertise in advocating for the Taiwan stock exchange listed company as an advisor and ambassador.
One of Alun's first public appearances in his new role as Technology Ambassador for Ventec will be at the 11th CTI Symposium in Munich (November 22-23, 2018) with a presentation titled 'Hot Cars, cool electronics… Thermal Management Materials for Automotive Electronics'.
Alun continues to serve as the chairman of The European Institute for the PCB Community (EIPC) and holds the posts of director and trustee of the charity Scottish Autism.
He began his career as a research investigator at the Institute of Physics' Fulmer Research Institute in the UK and after serving as technical manager of a PCB manufacturer, he joined PCB materials supplier MAS Electronics going on to become UK general manager. Following the acquisition of MAS by Isola, he joined the Isola management team serving as a director and corporate vice-president of Operations and Engineering of the Isola Group worldwide.
Alun holds a B.Sc. Honors degree in Metallurgy from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Surrey, is an associate of the University of Surrey and a Fellow of the Institute of Circuit Technology.
"I am excited to work with an organization whose strong reputation and global recognition as a leading materials supplier is built upon its innovative culture and unique & proven product development capabilities," said Alun of his new role.
"I can't think of a more perfect ambassador for Ventec than Alun. He is highly networked & respected in the industry and widely acknowledged as a PCB expert. His experience and entrepreneurial flair will be of great benefit to Ventec as we journey through our most exciting period of development for the Group," Mark Goodwin, Ventec's COO Europe and Americas, added.

Designer’s Notebook: What Designers Need to Know About Manufacturing, Part 2
04/24/2024 | Vern Solberg -- Column: Designer's NotebookThe printed circuit board (PCB) is the primary base element for providing the interconnect platform for mounting and electrically joining electronic components. When assessing PCB design complexity, first consider the component area and board area ratio. If the surface area for the component interface is restricted, it may justify adopting multilayer or multilayer sequential buildup (SBU) PCB fabrication to enable a more efficient sub-surface circuit interconnect.

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.
