January 13, 2016 | Ventec International GroupEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Ventec International Group, a world leader in the production of polyimide & high reliability epoxy laminates and prepregs, will exhibit in Booth 118 at DesignCon 2016 (January 20th to 21st 2016, Santa Clara, CA, USA) where the company will launch a new brand identity, tec-speed, for its high speed/low loss product line. With the launch, Ventec will unveil a new logo, marketing collateral and technical specifications.
The creation of the brand name 'tec-speed' is a move to unite Ventec's high speed/low loss product portfolio and better position the range under a single identity, connecting the products through a clear and cohesive visual presentation.
Martin Cotton, Director OEM Technology, commented: “The tec-speed brand now unites one of the most comprehensive range of products in high speed/low loss PCB material technology. Every tec-speed product provides technological innovation, high performance and quality to customers to perfectly meet their needs.”
Ventec International Group’s COO USA & EUROPE, Mark Goodwin added: “With the growing demand for high reliability and high speed computing & storage applications, and a pipeline of new innovative additions to our range, the timing is right to give our product line a clear identity. More than that, our unique approach to supply chain ownership, with a manufacturing and distribution network that covers the relevant markets globally, ensures fast delivery of quality materials”.
A selection of products will be highlighted at the show, including:
tec-speed 6.1 (Dk 3.2, Df 0.004 RC 50%) - Ultra-Low Loss High Tg material available with all copper styles, including HVLP. Uses Low Dk spread glass to improve Skew and Jitter. Applications include Telecom, Router, Servers etc. Specifically, backplane and daughter card designs where good Signal Integrity is essential. This material has excellent Thermal properties.
tec-speed 4.0 (Dk 3.8, Df 0.007) - Low-Loss High Tg material available with all copper styles, including HVLP. Applications focus on High Frequency & High Speed designs, Automotive and Satellite communication, Navigation, GPS, etc. are typical applications. This material has excellent thermal properties.
tec-speed 1.0 (Dk 3.9, Df 0.012 @ 10GHz RC75%) - Mid-Loss Mid Tg Halogen Free material available with all copper styles. Applications include hand-held products, specifically those that require high frequency high speed materials. This material has excellent thermal properties.

Flexible Thinking: Designing Flex Circuits for Dynamic Reliability
04/09/2026 | Joe Fjelstad -- Column: Flexible ThinkingFlex circuits flex. No surprises there. However, they are also very commonly designed into products because they are thin and offer consistent thickness and dielectric properties, attributes highly prized by present-day product designers of personal electronics. This would include smartphones and, increasingly, wearable electronics for medical monitoring and even fashion.
Understanding Tolerances in Flexible Circuit Design
04/01/2026 | Chris Clark, Flexible Circuit TechnologiesThe challenge with cumulative tolerances is meeting the dimensional requirements for items dimensioned on a drawing or specification for a flexible or rigid-flex circuit. It is critical to understand the fabrication processes and how features are defined when creating your tolerance requirements.
Target Condition: An Exploration of Flooding PCB Layers
04/02/2026 | Kelly Dack -- Column: Target ConditionThe concept of flooding PCB layers with copper has been around for so long, you’d think we’d have it mastered. We haven’t. (Oh, and by “we,” I mean design engineers and the software tools we depend on.) Years ago, PCB artwork was created by hand using light tables, with tape applied to Mylar. Signals were slow, traces were relatively wide, and high-current paths were simply “beefed up” with wider copper. Signal integrity wasn’t yet a driving concern. Today, solid return paths are fundamental to robust design. We understand the importance of continuous reference planes for signal integrity and EMI control.
New, Greener Solutions for Etch: Novel Copper Extraction
03/30/2026 | Richard Nichols, GreenSource Engineering“Novel” is a typical marketing phrase that implies new and unique, but often “novel” actually means an established technology being applied to a new field or application. This, in turn, is often driven by newly relevant external motivation. GreenSource has been working on just such a solution: novel copper extraction, offering a better and greener alternative to traditional LLE control systems for cupric chloride etch.
