Current IssueIn Pursuit of Perfection: Defect Reduction
For bare PCB board fabrication, defect reduction is a critical aspect of a company's bottom line profitability. In this issue, we examine how imaging, etching, and plating processes can provide information and insight into reducing defects and increasing yields.
Voices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.

STAr Sagittarius Series Intelligent Integrated Test System
August 12, 2024 | PRNewswireEstimated reading time: 1 minute
STAr Sagittarius Series, launched in 2001, is an intelligent test software designed for semiconductor parametric and reliability test and enables to integrate capacitance-voltage (CV) and current-voltage (IV) measurements into one single platform. As a result of electronics application becomes more diversified, the Sagittarius System has been continuously developed to meet industry measurement needs in the past 20 years, and with more than 3000 copies deployed in foundries, design houses and IDMs at present.
The Sagittarius Series is WindowsTM-based semiconductor parametric test and device characterization test software and integrates seamlessly into most benchtop instruments and probe stations. The software is also a comprehensive tool and accelerates the measurement process. Its graphical configuration and intuitive graphical-based test sequences enable users easily to configure test system with unlimited matrix or multiplexer and test resources such as SMU, CMU by drag-and-drop with just a few clicks.
Moreover, Sagittarius Series Intelligent Test System is under the master-slave operation and controls up to 32 slaves via internet connectivity. All test modes such as control, extra operation steps saving, test setup and test data files are in central management by Master which can view and collect latest update of all Salves system status. With full automation operation for multi-wafer, large statistics sample collection and built-in algorithms/libraries, Sagittarius Series ensures accurate and reliable measurement data for GaN, SiC, MOS, RFICs, RF MOSFET, Silicon Photonics Devices, Si/GaAs ICs, FPD and CMOS, etc.

Trouble in Your Tank: Yield Improvement and Reliability
05/22/2025 | Michael Carano -- Column: Trouble in Your TankThere’s a simple rule of business in manufacturing: “It is all about yields.” Higher yields for your products allow for increased profits and satisfied customers. When there are lower yields, overall cost to manufacture increases, and the additional time and strain on the factory floor affect the entire operation. Lower yields are often the result of “process drift,” when critical process parameters and specialized plating additives fall outside their acceptable ranges.
