Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Optimize the Interconnect: Understanding How Chemistry and Drilling Collaborate for OTI
Q: Why is crystallization such a focal point and how do additives influence it?
Crystallization determines whether a diffusion front can propagate through the joint; additives in the electrolyte are used to steer crystallization toward a bottom-up single-crystal outcome, or to prevent undesirable top-down crystallization, thereby enhancing reliability.
Optimize the Interconnect: Understanding How Chemistry and Drilling Collaborate for OTI
Q: What are the practical examples of how this collaboration changes outcomes in the laser and chemical processes?
By examining cross-sections and imaging data, the team explains how laser-induced wire shapes, wedge formation, and roughness at the target pads interact with adhesion promotion and electroplating, enabling adjustments that improve drill quality and reduce nanovoids and crystallization-related defects.
Optimize the Interconnect: Understanding How Chemistry and Drilling Collaborate for OTI
Q: But could you give us a quick recap on what OTI means?
OTI is a cross-functional initiative that combines the chemistry and equipment used in PCB manufacturing to better understand how laser drilling, adhesion promoters, and subsequent metallization interact, with the aim of improving reliability and shortening the development path for new processes.
How does Ultra HDI benefit: Routing Capabilities
Q: How best do we approach UHDI when we're using the router?
Use design specifications and avoid overloading the auto-router; selectively apply features like VNPAD, stacked microvias, and controlled line widths to balance manufacturability and density.
Ultra HDI - What does it mean to people, why would they want it?
Q: What are the design considerations for boards using UHDI to avoid unnecessary complexity?
Designers should leverage finer lines to minimize stacked vias and layers, consider solid copper fill strategies and buried vias, and plan for compatibility with existing equipment or selectively invest in additive processing, aiming to simplify the board while maintaining manufacturability.
