Registration fees include continental breakfast, refreshments, workshop
attendance and proceedings!
You are not alone! Fine pitch and high lead count devices have moved the
industry toward finer lines and smaller holes. Both fabricators and
assemblers require new finishing alternatives and new deposition processes.
The solderability stakes are extremely high: the multilayer printed wiring
board must now provide electronic and mechanical connections for a growing
number of more complicated, more expensive components. Final finishes are
critical to the successful interconnection between board and package.
Mistakes at this point can exact a very high price.
How does one choose the right finish? Which metals work with which component
types? Where do OSPs fit in? What are the considerations of the
manufacturer and assembler? What control procedures keep processes in
optimum condition? This CCA education conference will give you a good
overview of the options currently available and the progress being made in
this extremely important area of PWB technology.
Who should attend?
This workshop is for anyone involved in PWB manufacturing, especially process
engineers and quality control engineers. Assemblers, OEMs and anyone who
specifies or inspects PWBs will also gain a lot of valuable information from
the program.
