Trouble in Your Tank: At 40 GHz, Everything Matters, Part 2

07/27/2026 | Michael Carano -- Column: Trouble in Your Tank
In Part 1 of this article, we examined alternative solderable finishes for 5G/6G applications and reviewed literature on their performance at high frequencies. We found that certain solderable finishes are more susceptible to signal loss as frequency increases. These attenuation losses become increasingly significant at frequencies approaching and exceeding 40 GHz. Because of their high conductivity, silver and copper generally outperform finishes such as nickel and palladium. Taken together, these findings underscore the importance of finish selection in high-frequency applications.

It’s Only Common Sense: Stop Watching the Headlines and Start Watching the Opportunity

07/27/2026 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common Sense

Ionic Contamination Debate Highlights Growing Divide in Automotive Electronics

07/15/2026 | I-Connect007 Editorial Team
A recent Global Electronics Association panel discussion revealed both broad agreement and sharp differences regarding one of electronics manufacturing’s most persistent reliability questions: How clean is clean enough? The discussion, focused on ionic contamination assessment in electronic control unit (ECU) manufacturing, brought together the following experts:  Tim Dietz from Ford Motor Company, Dr. Lothar Henneken from Robert Bosch, Eric Camden from Foresite, Hubertus Mertens from MKS’ Atotech, Doug Pauls from It Depends Electronics, and Stan Rak from SF Rak Company, as moderator. While everyone agreed that contamination control is essential for long-term reliability, panelists differed significantly on whether ion chromatography (IC) should play a larger role in production acceptance and process control.
