Industries such as Military-Aerospace, Medical, Telecom, and Industrial Electronics rely on fine-pitch packages (QFPs and BGAs) and increased package pin counts to support their interconnect designs. To meet these demands, High-Density Interconnect (HDI) and Ultra High-Density Interconnect (UHDI) technologies play a critical role. When properly integrated into the PCB structure, HDI improves both signal integrity and via reliability.
The success or failure of product performance, reliability, and time to market is heavily influenced by the materials, processes, and designs of these enabling technologies. To equip professionals with the necessary skills and process knowledge, IPC developed this course.
