About HT Global Circuits
HT Global Circuits is a US-based printed circuit board manufacturer headquartered in St. Petersburg, Florida, with more than 36 years of experience in PCB manufacturing. The company produces rigid, flex, rigid-flex, RF, HDI, metal-core, aluminum and heavy-copper PCBs and covers the full range from quick-turn prototypes to low- and medium-volume production (10 to 10,000+ boards). Surface finishing processes include hard gold plating (Type I/II/III, 10–50 µin, incl. Type II with 30 µin over nickel for connectors) and selective gold plating. Production is certified to ISO 9001, IATF 16949, AS9100, ITAR and UL and is carried out to IPC Class 2/3. In addition to the plants in St. Petersburg and Milwaukee (USA), there are low-cost manufacturing locations in China, Taiwan and Thailand as well as engineering and sales teams in the USA, Jordan and Germany. Customer industries include aerospace/defense, automotive, industrial and energy, medical technology, networking and telecommunications, lighting and security technology. Over 1 billion delivered boards for more than 2,000 customers document the company's capacity and market position.
