Current IssueInner Layer Precision & Yields
In this issue, we examine the critical nature of building precisions into your inner layers and assessing their pass/fail status as early as possible. Whether it’s using automation to cut down on handling issues, identifying defects earlier, or replacing an old line...
Engineering 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.

Ventec to Highlight Advanced Materials and Service Innovation at Productronica 2023
October 24, 2023 | Ventec International GroupEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Ventec International Group Co., Ltd. will once again team up with partner Taiyo to promote the synergy between Ventec’s substrate materials and Taiyo solder masks, at Productronica 2023, Munich November, 14-17 in Hall B3, Booth 242.
Show highlights include Ventec’s new Battlam materials portfolio for advanced battery-management applications, alongside high-performing RF materials for cutting-edge wireless systems. Ventec will also showcase Ventec Giga Solutions, its new cooperative venture for turnkey workflow solutions.
Together, Ventec and Taiyo present a PCB materials one-stop shop, where customers can source high-performing Ventec laminates and prepregs from ranges such as tec-speed for communication and backplane and tec-thermal for power and lighting. In addition to Taiyo’s solder masks, available in a full range of colors, the one-stop shop can also supply a full range of copper foils, thermal interface materials, standard FR4, and special materials including flex-rigid and ultrathin.
"Productronica visitors can see how our Battlam and RF curated portfolios help customers quickly identify the right materials for their application and get to market ahead of the competition,” said Mark Goodwin, COO, Ventec International Group. “We will provide a second helping of the refreshing formula we established at electronica 12 months ago, as we again team up with Taiyo. This time, we will also highlight the value-add from our new Ventec Giga Solutions division to conceive, commission, and support highly automated PCB manufacturing capacity. It’s a service we expect to find growing demand as the industry moves to increase the resilience of its supply chains.”
Ventec’s Battlam portfolio contains hand-picked high-performing substrate materials that offer optimal parameters for applications in automotive, aerospace, and industrial sectors including utility-grade energy storage. The materials include polyimide-based, halogen-free, low-CTE, and CAF-resistant substrates, as well as unclad laminates, used everywhere from terminal plates to BMS circuitry.
The advanced tec-speed radio frequency material portfolio serves state-of-the-art communication, aerospace, and scientific applications including 5G infrastructure and terminal equipment targeting 3GPP upper and lower frequency ranges. Leveraging Ventec’s expertise in PTFE, with its excellent molecular properties, tec-speed steps up wherever high signal speed, low loss, and environmental robustness are needed.
Ventec's experts will be present throughout the event to explain the products and services available, including Ventec’s unique, wholly owned supply chain that safeguards product integrity and delivery performance. All Productronica visitors are invited to visit the booth, B3.242, to experience firsthand the latest innovations.

Effects of Advanced Packaging and Stackup Design
12/26/2024 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamKris Moyer teaches several PCB design classes for IPC and Sacramento State, including advanced PCB design. His advanced design classes take on some really interesting topics, including the impact of a designer’s choice of advanced packaging upon the design of the layer stackup. Kris shares his thoughts on the relationship between packaging and stackup, what PCB designers need to know, and why he believes, “The rules we used to live by are no longer valid.”
The Knowledge Base: The Era of Advanced Packaging
12/23/2024 | Mike Konrad -- Column: The Knowledge BaseThe semiconductor industry is at a pivotal juncture. As the traditional scaling predicted by Moore's Law encounters significant physical and economic barriers, transistor density can no longer double every two years without escalating costs and complications. As a result, the industry is shifting its focus from chip-level advancements to innovative packaging and substrate technologies. I Invited Dr. Nava Shpaisman, strategic collaboration manager at KLA, to provide some insight.
