...We can be confident that we have a reliable and competitive product. Teradyne looks forward to a continued technology partnership with DDi”

Thomas Felding, VP of New Product Introduction, Teradyne, Inc., ATE Operations on a recent laminate testing program for lead-free assembly.



Superior technologies yield superior solutions.
There’s always a better solution. A faster way to achieve quality results. A more efficient route. A finer way to simplify complex processes. And we’re determined to be that company that uncovers it and puts it to use for you. To that end, we invest millions each year in research and development and collaborate with leading industry partners so that you can achieve your goals of creating next-generation products faster, easier, and with superior results. Here are some of our most recent breakthroughs:


DDi’s Engineering Team has developed a new process –
FLAT-WRAP™
Technology – that eliminates the need for additional surface plated copper required to meet the IPC specification for wrap plating (ref. IPC 6012B Amendment 1 p. 3.6.2.11.1).
FLAT-WRAP™
Technology results in consistent wrap plate thickness matching the thickness of the initial surface foil with minimum wrap and copper thickness to be in accordance with IPC 6012B Class 2 or Class 3.
FLAT-WRAP™
Technology is suited for design applications with multiple wrap plating requirements and fine pitch trace and space on plated layers, typically sequential lam jobs or standard thru hole Via-In-Pad requiring conductive or non-conductive via fill.

FLAT-WRAP™
Technology



Today’s circuits extend copper interconnects bandwidth by the GHz, making PCB signal integrity crucial to overall performance. We focus on this key aspect at every phase, from concept through production. We ensure this quality by selecting the correct circuit geometries and dialectric materials from the more than 70 that we support; verifying all circuit parameters for specific tolerance using specialized modeling software; and testing using TDRs for the most demanding applications.

Whether your design is a backplane or a high-performance circuit board, increasing circuit densities and speeds are challenging traditional PCB power distribution techniques. Our engineering team has pioneered many techniques to address power delivery, including our ability to process copper up to five ounces; advanced planar buried capacitance materials providing 500 pf to 1500 pf per-square-inch in conjunction with extremely low sheet inductance; and laser and mechanical Via-In-Pad technologies for direct vertical connections without surface traces, providing the lowest possible inductance.

Exponential increases in thermal dissipation at the circuit level have prompted us to develop innovative thermal management solutions, such as conductive-cooled PCB’s traditionally fabricated with solid copper cores. Our quest for even higher performance led us to develop lighter weight materials using carbon fiber fabric with thermal conductivities ranging from 10 to >600 w/m*k, making them ideal for aerospace applications.

Circuit miniaturization and enhanced performance levels are redefining tolerances essential for producing printed components, filters, and couplers, as well as precision terminations. Our engineering team has a long history of addressing these challenges with such solutions as engineering resources that include 2D and 3D full-wave finite element modeling capabilities; an extensive selection of RF dielectric materials, including hybrid construction compatibilities; and Laser Direct Imaging capabilities for enhanced resolution and +/- 0.001” registration.

These days, electronics companies demand smaller, faster, thinner products with enhanced functionality. And DDi’s pioneering Microvia and Stacked MicroVia (SMV) technologies deliver, making it possible to produce a wide range of products, from handheld electronics like Apple’s iPod Nano, camera phones, navigation systems and computers to medical devices, sonar to wireless LAN and reference designs for fine pitch chip sets.

DDi in conjunction with select OEMs conducted tests on 9 different FR4 materials to determine which were thermally robust enough to survive the higher temperatures of Lead Free Assembly.
The tests included Thermal Stability, Peel Strength, Solder Float, Electrical, Interconnect Stress, Highly Accelerated Thermal Shock, and Conductive Anodic Filament Growth.
