July 1, 2022 | AtotechEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Atotech, a leading specialty chemicals technology company and a market leader in advanced electroplating solutions, will take part in the Connector User Congress | Anwenderkongress Steckverbinder, running from July 4 through July 6, 2022 in Würzburg, Germany. The show provides an opportunity for industry partners to connect and network.
Atotech’s product experts are looking forward to exchange with visitors on the latest market and technology trends and requirements of connector designs and applications at booth # 26.
The company’s latest product innovations for connector applications include:
- Silvertech® RBH – hard silver electrolyte for electric vehicles applications, e.g. power train bus bars and connectors
- Stannopure® PF10 – green tin plating process for connectors and lead frames
- Novoplate® NIW – bright nickel-tungsten plating process with approximately 20% W designed to increase corrosion and wear resistance for connector applications
- Argalin® XL – solution for high performance and temperature stable anti-tarnish for silver and copper deposits
- Protectostan® Plus 3 – green (PFAS free) post dip for tin to preserve solderability under steam or heat

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.
