Ventec's Technology Ambassador Alun Morgan to Keynote at AltiumLive 2019
January 14, 2019 | Ventec International GroupEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Ventec International Group Co., Ltd., a world leader in the production of polyimide and high reliability epoxy laminates and prepregs and specialist provider of thermal management and IMS solutions, is pleased to announce Technology Ambassador Alun Morgan as a keynote speaker at the AltiumLive summit in Munich on the 16 January 2019 with a presentation on ‘PCB base material properties and developments: What designers need to know'.
AltiumLive is the annual PCB design summit which has quickly become one of the largest electronics conferences in the world.
Alun's presentation will focus on PCB base material properties and developments, aiming to give designers a greater understanding of the base materials used in their designs and the critical properties of base materials that impact performance.
Alun will review the development of high reliability base materials for PCBs with a focus on thermal performance, reliability and signal integrity. He will explore classification by application as a method of substrate selection which gives the designer the flexibility to select the appropriate substrate for an application without over engineering performance that is neither required nor can be afforded. The presentation includes a straightforward guide to the PCB substrate manufacturing process emphasising the impact of resin chemistry, material reinforcement and copper foil properties on substrate performance. Armed with this knowledge, PCB Designers will be able to better specify and choose appropriate materials for their needs.
Ian Mayoh, European technical support manager, will also be expertly on hand throughout the event and at the Ventec booth for any technical advice required.

The Chemical Connection: Surface Finishes for PCBs
03/31/2025 | Don Ball -- Column: The Chemical ConnectionWriting about surface finishes brings a feeling of nostalgia. You see, one of my first jobs in the industry was providing technical support for surface cleaning processes and finishes to enhance dry film adhesion to copper surfaces. I’d like to take this opportunity to revisit the basics, indulge in my nostalgia, and perhaps provide some insight into why we do things the way we do them in the here and now.
