Abstract:The task of the final finish on the printed circuit board is to protect the copper surface and at the same time keep it active for the subsequent assembly steps. In high frequency applications, additionally the impact on the signal loss becomes of interest. Typically, the choice of the final finish is defined by the target application. The demands on solderability and bondability need to be considered and the acceptable price level needs to be defined. For the use in high frequency applications the signal inte… Show more
