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.

Aismalibar to Attend PCIM 2024
June 5, 2024 | AismalibarEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Aismalibar will be attending PCIM 2024 in Nuremberg, Germany from June 11th to 13th, presenting new cooling technologies for power electronics, specifically Thermal Interface Materials (TIMs) and Insulated Metal Substrates (IMS). PCIM is the leading international exhibition and conference for Power Electronics, Intelligent Motion, Renewable Energy and Energy Management. The exhibition and conference are the international meeting point for the industry. Aismalibar will exhibit in booth 449 Hall 9 of the Nuremberg Exhibition Grounds.
Aismalibar Thermal Interface Materials have been designed to improve dielectric isolation and fast thermal transmission in power electronics and battery packs among others, taking into consideration cost reduction, lifetime performance, safety, and reliability.
Thermal Interface Materials are divided into two main areas, differentiated based on whether they need dielectric capacity. The dielectric requirement is determined by the electronic device, its operating voltage, and the applicable regulations regarding ground insulation. Additionally, Aismalibar has developed a series of applicable surfaces on the TIMs, differentiated by whether they need to be self-adhesive. Both surfaces serve, in turn, to reduce the air cavities that exist between the surfaces of the TIMs and the heatsinks or electronic components.
Aismalibar has a wide range of thermal management solutions, but this year it will focus on presenting the following new products:
- The BOND SHEET CURED GLASS FREE is used for Thermal Interface material in power electronics and battery isolation with 3,2w/mK and 4 to 6Kv dielectric strength.
- Thermal FR4 used in PCB manufacturing to improve thermal management and reduce thermal vias. The use of the Aismalibar thermal FR4 can reduce a 15% d the operating temperature of power components by improving the output or extending the life of the component.
- Insulated Metal Substrate COBRITHERM ULTRATHIN 5W and 8W used in high-end power AC/DC converters and high-power LED industry.
- And COBRITHERM ALP, made from an Aluminium base coated with a 100-micron dielectric ceramic layer with extra low thermal resistance and high dielectric strength up to 6KV. It is ideal for building battery housing, covers, partitions or radiators, power electronics and comfortable heat sinks, among other solutions. It is completely insulated and guarantees excellent contact between the battery and dissipation elements.

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.
Overview of Soldering Systems With Vacuum
12/18/2024 | Dr. Paul Wild, Rehm Thermal Systems GmbHWhen soldering electronic assemblies, the focus of the vacuum application is on the removal of volatile substances from the solder joints and the associated reduction of pore formation. Particularly in the thermal management of power electronics components, pores can cause so-called hotspots with higher temperatures due to their poor heat conduction. These hotspots can lead to overheating of the components on the one hand and to thermally induced destruction of the solder structure on the other.
