June 19, 2020 | AtotechEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Atotech, a leading global provider of electroplating and surface-finishing chemicals and equipment for PCB, semiconductor advanced packaging, and dual damascene applications, is pleased to announce its participation in this year’s SEMICON China, held at the Shanghai New International Expo Center from June 27 – 29. CSTIC will be held as a virtual conference in conjunction with SEMICON China from June 26 – July 17, 2020.
Atotech’s experts will be present at booth E5317 and visitors are welcome to discuss the company’s latest innovations, future developments and trends in the electronics industry.
Highlights at the booth will include:
- Spherolyte® Cu UF3 – high-purity ECD Copper process that enables high-speed plating of pure Copper for pillar applications.
- Xenolyte® Zincate CFA2 – universal pretreatment process for all types of Aluminum and Aluminum alloy wafers.
- Xenolyte® Pd HS – pure Palladium deposits for high-reliability pad metallization and RDL housing.
- MultiPlate® ECD system for power IC – simultaneous Copper deposition for embedding power chips.
- NEAP X.1 / X.2 – next generation through-hole and blind micro via filling process for use in VCP systems with insoluble anodes.
SuperDip 21N – Atotech’s 2-in-1 anti-tarnish and anti-EBO post-treatment for leadframe application on both Copper and Silver surfaces and even Nickel/Palladium/Gold.
Atotech is also pleased to announce, that Din-Ghee Neoh, Atotech’s Business Manager for Leadframe and Connector technology, will participate in the virtual conference, CSTIC, with a pre-recorded video presentation. He will discuss: “Enhancing high temperature adhesion performance via a renovated leadframe surface treatment” and his presentation will be available for replay for the entire event (June 26 – July 17).

Designers Notebook: Impact of Advanced Semiconductor Packaging on PCB Stackup
01/07/2025 | Vern Solberg -- Column: Designer's NotebookTo accommodate new generations of high I/O semiconductor packaging, printed circuit board fabrication technology has had to undergo significant changes in both the process methods and the criteria for base material selection and construction sequence (stackup). Many of the new high-function multi-core semiconductor package families require more terminals than their predecessors, requiring a significantly narrower terminal pitch. Interconnecting these very fine-pitch, high I/O semiconductors to the PCB is made possible by an intermediate element referred to as an interposer.
BOOK EXCERPT: The Printed Circuit Designer’s Guide to... High Performance Materials, Chapter 4
01/02/2025 | I-Connect007In Chapter 4, Michael Gay discusses the two main types of copper foil used for PCB boards today: electrodeposited (ED) foil and rolled annealed (RA) foil. He also explains the pros and cons of each, and provides an update of the latest innovations in copper foil technology.
Connect the Dots: Designing for Reality—Solder Mask and Legend
01/02/2025 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsIn the previous episode of I-Connect007’s On the Line with… podcast, we discussed the strip, etch, and strip process. At this point, we have a functioning board, but we still need to protect the PCB from environmental effects and document the circuit components. This brings us to the solder mask and legend phase of production.
Global PCB Connections: Following DFM Rules Leads to Better Boards
12/18/2024 | Jerome Larez -- Column: Global PCB ConnectionsAs a PCB field applications engineer, ensuring smooth communication between PCB designers and fabricators is one of my frequent challenges. A critical part of that dialogue is design for manufacturing (DFM). Many designers, even experienced ones, often misunderstand or overlook important DFM considerations. They may confuse design rules with manufacturing minimums, leading to technically feasible designs that are difficult or costly to produce. In this column, I will clarify some common DFM guidelines and help designers understand the difference between “design rules” and “minimums” while sharing best practices that will simplify the production process and ensure the highest quality PCB.
Sayonara to the Last Standing Copper Foil Plant in North America
12/17/2024 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007In July 2021, PCB007 Magazine published an interview with Michael Coll and Chris Stevens of Nippon Denkai about the new acquisition by Nippon Denkai of the last-standing ED foil manufacturer in North America. The plant in Augusta, Georgia, was formerly owned by Oak Mitsui, Inc. and had been purchased by Nippon Denkai the previous March, after which significant investment was made with the expectation of providing more jobs.
