What the 10% Duty Means
Key Takeaways: The new 2025 semiconductor tariff reprises Trump’s earlier protectionist playbook—this time targeting even close U.S. allies and risking global tech supply chain disruption. Electronics rely on deeply globalised manufacturing networks—tariffs threaten to break these chains, inflating costs across industries from automotive to aerospace. Rather than countering China, the tariff risks undermining U.S. competitiveness—American […]

Get your coats: the new trends in conformal coatings for electronic manufacturing
Conformal coatings have long been used to protect and prolong the life of a PCB’s components. But as with all things, technology and techniques evolve, and recently new coatings and methods of applying and checking have been developed to enhance the possibilities in this area. Let’s start by defining exactly what conformal coatings are before […]
Sensing Current Using Optical Fibers
There does not seem to be any relation between an optical fiber carrying light and a wire through which an electric current is flowing. But as far back as 1845, Michael Faraday had demonstrated that the magnetic field generated by a current flow through a wire influences the plane-polarization of light waves. Optical fibers are […]
