Current IssueEngineering Economics
The real cost to manufacture a PCB encompasses everything that goes into making the product: the materials and other value-added supplies, machine and personnel costs, and most importantly, your quality. A hard look at real costs seems wholly appropriate.
Alternate Metallization Processes
Traditional electroless copper and electroless copper immersion gold have been primary PCB plating methods for decades. But alternative plating metals and processes have been introduced over the past few years as miniaturization and advanced packaging continue to develop.
Technology Roadmaps
In this issue of PCB007 Magazine, we discuss technology roadmaps and what they mean for our businesses, providing context to the all-important question: What is my company’s technology roadmap?

iNEMI PCB Warpage Characterization and Minimization Webinar
April 17, 2020 | iNEMIEstimated reading time: 1 minute
PCB Warpage Characterization and Minimization End-of-Project Webinar: May 13?14, 2020
The use of thinner components and thinner multi-up panel PCBs (? 40 mils) has exacerbated PCB warpage issues in SMT assembly which, in turn, can negatively impact PCB assembly yield.
iNEMI’s PCB Warpage Characterization and Minimization project studied key design and fabrication factors for thin PCBs to determine the impact on warpage. The project analyzed the effects of:
- PCB post processing (bake & no bake PCB)
- Panel locations (corner & center)
- PCB thicknesses (0.8 mm & 0.6 mm)
- Material properties (mid Tg and high Tg)
- PCB fabrication processing
The resulting PCB warpage was evaluated using high temperature warpage measurement metrology to evaluate the ball grid arrays (BGA) and panel area PCB coplanarity. The project team will report on the analysis of the results and recommendations.
