Each event had its own distinctive character and showcased the passion and innovative spirit of the electronics industry.<\/p>\n<p>We presented our new <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocircuits.com\/pcb-assembly-hdi-pool\/\">HDI pool<\/a><\/strong> at the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocircuits.com\/blog\/trade-fairs-in-autumn-2024\/\">exposition<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 an economical solution for designs with a BGA and an easy entry to HDI technology in line with our motto \u201can engineer&#039;s best friend\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3>The HDI pool offers the following:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Seamless transition to HDI<\/strong>: Our PCB Visualizer supports HDI designs with microvias and simplifies the switch from standard technology, guiding you every step of the way from design verification to \u201cRight First Time for Manufacture\u201d.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Instant pricing &amp; fast turnaround<\/strong>: As always, you get an immediate quote and delivery time. Your HDI PCBs will be ready in as little as 10 working days.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Quick start with HDI technology<\/strong>: A predefined 8-layer stack, including two microvia layers, enables full routing of BGAs with a pitch as small as 0.4 mm \u2013 all without significantly increasing costs! Save your preliminary calculation of your HDI project in the shopping basket of your Eurocircuits online customer account and from there you can download an Altium Design Rule Check package that allows you to start your CAD layout project for HDI with the right buildup and the right design specifications.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fast and reliable prototyping<\/strong>: Start your PCB design immediately and develop a production-ready HDI design with precision. Our Right-First-Time approach guarantees that your HDI prototypes are manufactured promptly and accurately, without delays.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Expert guidance<\/strong>: Why face the challenges of HDI alone. Our team of experienced engineers is here to assist, offering predefined fan-outs for common package types and personalized support to ensure your HDI designs are correct from the start.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Find out more and get started right away:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurocircuits.com\/pcb-assembly-hdi-pool\/\">HDI Pool Service Parameters<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/be.eurocircuits.com\/shop\/assembly\/configurator.aspx?sessionid=8284ff9c-a76a-4615-8210-1ee7f656bd29&amp;loadfrom=web&amp;service=hdipool&amp;lang=en&amp;_gl=1*1twh0w2*_gcl_au*nti3odaymzmylje3mju5nje2mtm.*_ga*mtmwotmymdcymi4xnza2mdqynzu0*_ga_bjg2crqq7e*mtczmjq3otm1ns42mc4xlje3mzi0nzk2mtgumc4wlja.*_fplc*mudxzee0m2vjutv5zgzfvetlwhfmbu5ocfrsvnfwvnvkchbpavbkmjhmb0fkjtjgundnvutgughzzfrrmejhzlfmcjzuweptefpvekljudv5bljjcvpwv1dtulj4offcdxjgs0l1y0jirldergvfz3nojtjgajm0rgq3cerzbdrmdyuzrcuzra..\">Start with a BGA fan-out<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Highlights of the electronics in Munich<\/h3>\n<p>The crowning glory: electronica in Munich with over 80,000 visitors from 59 countries.
