March 20, 2023 | AtotechEstimated reading time: 1 minute
MKS Instruments announced its participation in the upcoming CPCA Show 2023, the international electronic circuits exhibition in Shanghai, China held from March 22-24, 2023. MKS will be present with representatives from two of its strategic brands, Atotech and ESI, and present its latest products and manufacturing solution for printed circuit board and package substrate manufacturing.
Product experts from overseas will be joining the local team and be available to discuss the latest industry trends and challenges, as well as introduce the new combined product offering consisting of PCB production equipment (wet-to-wet process equipment, laser systems, and auxiliaries), chemistry, software, and service. The company will be exhibiting at booth 7T26 and this year’s product highlights include:
- V-Plate: The new gold standard for vertical conveyor plating equipment for next-generation HDI PCB and package substrates
- InPro SAP6: The new high-end electrolyte for vertical processing of next-generation package substrates
- New Uniplate: The industry-leading horizontal plating tool for next-generation HDI PCBs and package substrates manufacturing
- Printoganth MV TP2: Next-generation electroless copper for fine-line SAP applications
- BondFilm EX: New bonding enhancement solution for low signal loss high-frequency applications
- PallaBond: Direct pure EPAG for high-end circuitry and reliability application
- CapstoneTM: Flex PCB UV drilling tool for high-performance breakthrough productivity
- GeodeTM: HDI PCB and package substrate high-precision CO2 via drilling tool

The Evolution of Picosecond Laser Drilling
06/19/2025 | Marcy LaRont, PCB007 MagazineIs it hard to imagine a single laser pulse reduced not only from nanoseconds to picoseconds in its pulse duration, but even to femtoseconds? Well, buckle up because it seems we are there. In this interview, Dr. Stefan Rung, technical director of laser machines at Schmoll Maschinen GmbH, traces the technology trajectory of the laser drill from the CO2 laser to cutting-edge picosecond and hybrid laser drilling systems, highlighting the benefits and limitations of each method, and demonstrating how laser innovations are shaping the future of PCB fabrication.

Preventing Surface Prep Defects and Ensuring Reliability
06/10/2025 | Marcy LaRont, PCB007 MagazineIn printed circuit board (PCB) fabrication, surface preparation is a critical process that ensures strong adhesion, reliable plating, and long-term product performance. Without proper surface treatment, manufacturers may encounter defects such as delamination, poor solder mask adhesion, and plating failures. This article examines key surface preparation techniques, common defects resulting from improper processes, and real-world case studies that illustrate best practices.
RF PCB Design Tips and Tricks
05/08/2025 | Cherie Litson, EPTAC MIT CID/CID+There are many great books, videos, and information online about designing PCBs for RF circuits. A few of my favorite RF sources are Hans Rosenberg, Stephen Chavez, and Rick Hartley, but there are many more. These PCB design engineers have a very good perspective on what it takes to take an RF design from schematic concept to PCB layout.
