Aismalibar North America to Exhibit at Strategies in Light
January 27, 2020 | AismalibarEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
AISMALIBAR is happy to exhibit at this year’s Strategies in Light trade show in San Diego, CA on February 11−13, 2020. Strategies in Light is the leading LED and lighting event in North America and has been for more than 15 years. Aismalibar North America encourages visitors to come and view cutting-edge thermal management solutions.
Strategies in light covers every aspect of lighting to provide a 360-degree view of the market and offers a platform where professionals can learn, collaborate, and connect face-to-face. More than 200 exhibitors will showcase the latest products, technologies and services.
Aismalibar will showcase their newest technology, COBRITHERM ULTRATHIN 4W – TG180ºC−150ºC MOT. An Insulated Metal Substrate (IMS) based on an aluminum cladding with an ED copper sheet on the opposite side, it contains an innovative 35mm ultra-thin polymer-ceramic dielectric layer of its own formulation, offering industry-leading thermal conductivity and high dielectric strength. It also offers strong MOT, High Tg and Low CTE values, which are the key elements for performance of the MPCB operating at high temperatures.
In addition, Aismalibar will feature THIN LAM HTC 3,2W - Tg180°C - Td 420°C - Low CTE. By THIN LAM allows for easy temperature reduction of your board allowing for an increase the power or the processor clock speed to obtain better performance on the same electronic design. FR4 PCBs with high density of thermal vias can be replaced by a standard double side PCBs constructed with THIN LAM without the needs of thermal vias.
Finally, Aismalibar will showcase the BOND SHEET PRE PREG 3,2W - Tg180ºC - Low CTE. Aismalibar’s high thermal BOND SHEET (Thermal Pre Preg) can be used for different applications on multilayer PCB and MPCB industry. By using BOND SHEET, dielectric layers become thermally conductive and are ideal to release heat from the electronic components located on the functional copper sideways and to the heatsink.
About AISMALIBAR
Founded in 1934 and based in Barcelona, Spain, Aismalibar manufactures high end Copper and Metal Clad Laminates for the Printed Circuit Board Industry. Aismalibar’s expertise lies in offering the best solutions to reduce the operational temperature of the Printed Circuit Boards. Aismalibar materials ensure quality and reliability of all the products that incorporate them.
Aismalibar has implemented a 100% proof test with 1-3KV (High Pot Test) to every IMS laminate that is produced. These materials minimize the use of supplementary fans or heat sinks, thus reducing production costs. Aismalibar now operates globally through several subsidiaries. Our priorities are, and have always been technological innovation and customer satisfaction.

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.
