Ventec at APEC 2019: Thermal Management and IMS Solutions for Power Electronics
March 6, 2019 | Ventec International GroupEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Ventec International Group will showcase its latest power electronics PCB material technology innovations at APEC 2019, which is taking place at the Anaheim Convention Center from March 18-20 in Anaheim, California, USA. The Ventec technology team will be on hand on booth #438 showcasing unique laminate & prepreg capability solutions designed for the most demanding thermal applications.
Ventec is set to further strengthen its position as a global leader in technology for high-performance thermal management and signal integrity materials at the Applied Power Electronics Conference in Anaheim, USA on booth #438.
Show highlights include:
VT-4B Series IMS – thermal conductivity from 1.0 to 10.0 W/m.K
For superior thermal dissipation of an insulated metal substrate (IMS), VT-4B series materials offer the perfect performance and properties. VT-4B1 is designed for bending and forming with thermal conductivity of 1.0 W/m.K, for minimum Zth 0.078°C*in2/W. From VT-4B3 to VT-4B9, the family provides a broad choice of thermal performance: 3 W/m.K to 10.0 W/m.K, and minimum Zth from 0.026°C*in2/W to 0.0078°C*in2/W satisfy demanding applications including high power-density converters and power supplies. For direct-to-metal connection of electrically isolated heat sources, VT-4B5SP selective preference substrates ensure maximum thermal efficiency and place dielectric insulation only where needed.
VT-5A2—Highest performance thermally conductive laminate material
The perfect choice for hybrid multilayer low-loss constructions, VT-5A2 offers a polymer matrix that is fully compatible with Ventec laminates, epoxy or polyimide-based materials including tec-speed. The lead-free assembly compatible material sets itself apart by offering highest performance thermal conductivity 8 times that of FR-4 at 2.2 W/m.K, a high Tg of 190°C, best in class thermal performance (T260 >60 minutes, T288 >30 minutes and T300 >15 minutes) and MOT of 130°C.
tec-speed 20.0—No more compromises—performance, price & availability
Power amplifiers are one of the world's most demanding printed circuit board applications where high frequency performance, loss characteristics and reliability are key. tec-speed 20.0 (VT-870) offers all three and more: unrivalled performance with Dk 3.00-3.48 and Df 0.002-0.0037, superior loss characteristics and highest reliability, combined with fast availability and efficient delivery through Ventec’s fully controlled and managed global supply chain and technical support-network.
Thermal Interface Materials
As a perfect complement to Ventec’s IMS material families, thermally conductive and standard laminates and prepregs for multilayer PCB’s, EMI Thermal’s thermal interface materials (TIM) will be presented on the booth. The range of materials distributed through Ventec includes double-sided thermal tape, electrical insulators, natural graphite and void fillers, that ensure reliability and performance and prevent electronic components from overheating and being damaged or burnt out.

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.
