September 14, 2023 | MKS’ AtotechEstimated reading time: Less than a minute

MKS’ Atotech, a leading surface finishing brand of MKS Instruments, will participate in the upcoming IPCA Expo at Bangalore International Exhibition Centre (BIEC) and showcase its latest PCB manufacturing solutions from September 13 – 15.
At booth EF 51 Atotech® product experts will be introducing the combination of wet chemical processes, production equipment (plating lines, lasers, auxiliaries) and software solutions. A spotlight is set on the various solutions available for e-mobility e.g. BEV, HEV and PHEV batteries and other components. This year highlights include:
- V-Plate®: Vertical continuous Cu plating technology of choice for advanced HDI & IC substrate
- GeodeTM: High-precision CO2 via drilling for HDI PCB manufacturing and IC packaging
- CapstoneTM: Flex PCB UV drilling tool for high-performance breakthrough productivity
- CupraEtch® DF 8000: Low etch rate and etch depth dry film pretreatment
- Noviganth® AF 76: High build self-accelerating electroless copper
- OS Tech® SIT 2: The OSP solution combinable with ENIG
- Stannopure® PF 10: High-speed green tin process for lead frames and connectors
- InPro® MVF 2: Next-generation blind micro via filling in VCP for HDI production

Connect the Dots: Stop Killing Your Yield—The Hidden Cost of Design Oversights
04/03/2025 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsI’ve been in this industry long enough to recognize red flags in PCB designs. When designers send over PCBs that look great on the computer screen but have hidden flaws, it can lead to manufacturing problems. I have seen this happen too often: manufacturing delays, yield losses, and designers asking, “Why didn’t anyone tell me sooner?” Here’s the thing: Minor design improvements can greatly impact manufacturing yield, and design oversights can lead to expensive bottlenecks. Here’s how to find the hidden flaws in a design and avoid disaster.
Real Time with... IPC APEX EXPO 2025: Tariffs and Supply Chains in U.S. Electronics Manufacturing
04/01/2025 | Real Time with...IPC APEX EXPOChris Mitchell, VP of Global Government Relations for IPC, discusses IPC's concerns about tariffs on copper and their impact on U.S. electronics manufacturing. He emphasizes the complexity of supply chains and the need for policymakers to understand their effects.
The Chemical Connection: Surface Finishes for PCBs
03/31/2025 | Don Ball -- Column: The Chemical ConnectionWriting about surface finishes brings a feeling of nostalgia. You see, one of my first jobs in the industry was providing technical support for surface cleaning processes and finishes to enhance dry film adhesion to copper surfaces. I’d like to take this opportunity to revisit the basics, indulge in my nostalgia, and perhaps provide some insight into why we do things the way we do them in the here and now.
