Although we like to keep our episodes targeted towards anyone who is interested in PCB assembly as a whole, we know that many of our listeners are CircuitHub customers. In this episode we sat down with John Jacquinet, who is an Account Manager at CircuitHub.
We talk to John about how his work experience as en electrical engineer influenced his views when moving over to the assembly side, how to take advantage of the Account Manager team's help at CircuitHub, and customer best and worst practices.
P.S. If you're only interested in listening to Chris' 15 minute rant regarding poorly designed pull tabs, feel free to skip to 59:30.

Intrusive Soldering, also known as "pin in paste," is a lesser-known technique that uses a reflow oven to solder through-hole components and can offers advantages over traditional soldering approaches.
At the end of our episodes we've been asking you to send in any questions you had...and we're finally answering them. In this grab bag episode we discuss topics like what happens to excess parts, the ISO certification process, the shrinking size of resistors, and more! In honor of spooky season, we also share some scary stories from production.
In this episode we welcome back NCAB Group Field Application Engineer Ryan Miller. The first time we had him on the show he gave us a lesson on what impedance control is, in what situations is it necessary, and more.This time we recorded a video demo going through how he would create a stackup the requires controlled impedance.
