Schweizer Electronic AG: Flexibility in combining: HDI and RF Combi
Board by SCHWEIZER
25.05.2012 / 10:00
=--------------------------------------------------------------------
Schramberg, May 25, 2012 - Schweizer Electronic AG extends its portfolio by
two more products for the area of system cost reduction: HDI (High Density
Interconnect) Combi Board and RF (Radio Frequency) Combi Board. Both boards
allow for a maximum in flexibility of combining various materials and
different types of Printed Circuit Boards (PCB).
SCHWEIZER has already successfully introduced a Power Combi Board, in which
thick copper (of up to 400 µm) and finepitch PCB elements can be combined
within one single board. This board is best suited for the high current
segment in automotive applications and inverters. The new boards are
covering two more cases of applications.
The HDI Combi Board has been developed for applications in which highly
complex components, such as microcontrollers, are being combined with
standard components on a smallest possible installation space. Multilayer
HDI structures are combined with standard multilayers of a low number of
layers. Thus, cost intensive 'HDI Multilayering' for complex components
only needs to be applied where it is absolutely required. A 'de-routing'
via the entire board is therefore not necessary.
The RF Combi Board is particularly suited for applications in the radio
frequency area. This board combines high frequency PCBs with standard PCBs.
This combination reduces the usage of expensive materials, such as e.g.
base material filled with ceramics, and contributes to reducing the system
cost.
'The Combi Board is an important milestone of a PCB on its way from a pure
system carrier to a system solution', explains Christian Rössle, Vice
President Sales & Marketing of Schweizer Electronic AG. 'Overall, the Combi
Board allows to offer the functionality of several PCBs within one single
board, without connectors and cables. In many cases this approach results
in a possible system cost reduction as well as in improved quality and
reliability.'
