November 9, 2015 | UyemuraEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Uyemura USA announces the release of Thru-Cup MSC-PS Acid Cleaner, the group’s answer to enhanced cleaning and increased wetting of high aspect ratio plated through holes and micro-vias. The superior detergency, coupled with the low surface tension provides for excellent electroplated copper adhesion, and void free coverage.
Don Walsh, Director of Operations for Uyemura USA states "The Thru-Cup MSC-PS Acid Cleaner has shown superior performance out in the field, and has an exceptionally long bath life with customers reporting significant cost savings."
The Thru-Cup MSC-PS Acid Cleaner is designed as a drop in replacement process for conventional vertical copper electroplating applications. The Thru-Cup MSC-PS Acid Cleaner has minimal copper etching, and does not attack or damage dryfilm resists.
For more information about the Thru-Cup MSC-PS Acid Cleaner or any of Uyemura USA other products and services contact sales@uyemura.com.

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.
Trouble in Your Tank: Causes of Plating Voids, Pre-electroless Copper
05/09/2025 | Michael Carano -- Column: Trouble in Your TankIn the business of printed circuit fabrication, yield-reducing and costly defects can easily catch even the most seasoned engineers and production personnel off guard.
