From: Paul M Fly Mark, The thick film processes I am familiar with from a previous job are for hybrids, typically on ceramic substrates. The conductors are put down in the form of gold or silver filled inks which are then fired. The firing process sinters the metal and leaves permanent metal interconnections on the substrate. Are you working with ceramics? or are you talking about putting printed resistors on printed circuit boards? or am I just out in left field? ********************************* Paul Fly Eastman Kodak Company Engineering Technology Center 901 Elmgrove Rd.

Also, would someone kindly give me the short definition of thick film boards. Thanks, Mark Hargreaves P.S. This is my 1st post, although I've been watching from the shadows for a few weeks. Useful & interesting subjects; timely & friendly responses. ############################################################## TechNet Mail List provided as a free service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8d ############################################################## To subscribe/unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the body: To subscribe: SUBSCRIBE TECHNET <your full name> To unsubscribe: SIGNOFF TECHNET ############################################################## Please visit IPC web site (http://www.ipc.org/html/forum.htm) for additional information.
