June 8, 2018 | Park ElectrochemicalEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Park Electrochemical Corp. has introduced Meteorwave 8000, Park’s newest high-speed, extremely low-loss digital and RF electronics material. Meteorwave 8000 is designed for high layer-count printed circuit boards which require the highest levels of reliability. Meteorwave 8000 features a typical loss (Df) of .0016 at 10GHz and is intended for use in 56Gbs to 112Gbs applications, including core routers, high-speed switches, supercomputers, 5G infrastructure and other applications where low signal attenuation, high reliability and high data transfer rates are critical.
Meteorwave 8000 is available globally in multiple laminate thicknesses, from 0.0012” and up, and is compatible with ultra-low-profile copper. Meteorwave 8000 has a UL 94V-0 designation and a 130°C MOT rating. It meets IPC-4101/102 specifications, and is RoHS-compliant.
Park Electrochemical Corp. is a global advanced materials company which develops and manufactures advanced composite materials, primary and secondary structures and assemblies and low-volume tooling for the aerospace markets and high-technology digital and RF/microwave printed circuit materials principally for the telecommunications and internet infrastructure, enterprise and military markets. The company’s manufacturing facilities are located in Kansas, Singapore, France, Arizona and California. The company also maintains R&D facilities in Arizona, Kansas and Singapore.
Additional corporation information is available on the company’s website.

The Chemical Connection: Reducing Etch System Water Usage, Part 2
05/02/2024 | Don Ball -- Column: The Chemical ConnectionIn my last column, I reviewed some relatively simple ways to reduce water usage in existing etch systems: cutting down cooling coil water flow, adding chillers to replace plant water for cooling, lowering flow rate nozzles for rinses, etc. This month, I’ll continue with more ways to control water usage in your etcher. Most of these are not easily retrofittable to existing equipment but should be given serious consideration when new equipment is contemplated. With the right combination of add-ons, it is possible to bring the amount of water used in an etch system to almost zero.
Designer’s Notebook: What Designers Need to Know About Manufacturing, Part 2
04/24/2024 | Vern Solberg -- Column: Designer's NotebookThe printed circuit board (PCB) is the primary base element for providing the interconnect platform for mounting and electrically joining electronic components. When assessing PCB design complexity, first consider the component area and board area ratio. If the surface area for the component interface is restricted, it may justify adopting multilayer or multilayer sequential buildup (SBU) PCB fabrication to enable a more efficient sub-surface circuit interconnect.
