One World, One Industry: Mastering Technology PrognosticationBreaking High-speed Material Constraints: Design007 Magazine — May 2024
May 14, 2024 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
The world of PCB materials used to be a fairly simple one. It was divided into two groups: the “traditional” laminates and the high-speed laminates developed especially for high-speed PCBs.
But then traditional laminates started getting better, and high-speed designers and design engineers took notice. The resin systems have improved to the point that designers are now using flavors of FR-4 for some high-speed PCBs, saving time and money, while streamlining the fab process. In this issue of Design007 Magazine, our contributors explain how to avoid overconstraining your materials when working with high-speed boards. Don’t miss it.

The Chemical Connection: Chemical and Equipment Control of High-density Circuits, Part 2
08/27/2024 | Don Ball -- Column: The Chemical ConnectionIn my June column, I discussed how much control was needed for high-density circuits rather than what was thought necessary. I concentrated on cupric chloride and alkaline etch issues and equipment, since the etching step in the circuit board manufacturing process is one of the most critical areas where small changes in etchant parameters can have a large effect on the final product. The intention was to continue in the July issue with less critical process steps, such as developing and stripping. However, I got distracted by a specific control issue for alkaline etch, specifically controlling your alkaline etch process when you’re not etching a lot of copper. So, this month, I’m picking up where I left off in June.
