Aismalibar is set to introduce their newest product offering, FASTHERM, at the Ford Advanced Lighting Innovation Expo (ALIE) show in Dearborn, MI on October 3-4, 2017.
FASTHERM was developed by AISMALIBAR to achieve a faster thermal transition from the LED thermal pad to the heat sink. This technology allows LEDs to operate at a temperature 30°C to 50°C lower due to the direct thermal transition from the thermal pad to the heat sink. This superior thermal transition can be achieved by using the entire COBRITHERM HTC product range with either a copper or copper/aluminium base.
Jeff Brandman, President of Aismalibar North America, remarks, “We’re very excited to continue to work with FORD in automotive lighting product development. It is exciting to introduce FASTHERM at such a specialized event and we look forward to presenting our technical capabilities to all stakeholders at the expo.”
ALIE is a unique, ground-breaking opportunity to network with top global OEMS, manufacturers, engineers, buyers and designers directly involved in new and innovative automotive lighting technology.
Aismalibar is a global leader for insulated metal substrates used in the manufacturing of automotive lighting. With strong relationships with many TIER 1 suppliers their products can be found in lighting for many vehicles manufactured around the world and are in current generation Ford, Mercedes, Audi and BMW vehicles among others.
About Aismalibar
AISMALIBAR was one of the first IMS laminate manufacturers in the world and was the first in Europe. AISMALIBAR is proud to introduce their material to the North American market in 2012. Their product IMS Cobritherm ® is a qualified and recognized Insulated Metal Substrate which gives the best thermal management solutions with high thermal conductivity, low thermal impedance and high dielectric capacity. AISMALIBAR has implement a 100% proof test with 1-3KV (High Pot Test) to all IMS laminates coming out of their plant. This is the only way to insure the dialectical strength is perfect and that production problems are detected before PCBs arrive to the end user.

UHDI Fundamentals: A Primer on UHDI
09/28/2023 | Anaya Vardya, American Standard CircuitsThere has always been pressure to reduce line and space as we have seen the bleeding edge technology go from 8 mils to 5 mils and then to 3 mils. The difference between “then” and “now” is that the prior advancements, for the most part, used the same processes, chemistry and equipment going from 8 mils to 3 mils. But going from 3 mil to sub 1 mil trace and space is a quantum leap in printed circuit board (PCB) technology that requires a whole new set of processes and materials.

09/28/2023 | Michael Carano -- Column: Trouble in Your TankIn a previous column, the critical process of desmear and its necessity to ensure a clean copper surface connection was presented. Now, my discussion will focus on obtaining a void-free and tightly adherent copper plating deposit on these surfaces. After the desmear process, the task is to insure a continuous, conductive, and void-free deposit on the via walls and capture pad. Today, there are several processes that can be utilized to render vias conductive.

Designer’s Notebook: DFM Principles for Flexible Circuits
09/14/2023 | Vern Solberg -- Column: Designer's NotebookFlexible circuit applications can be as basic as furnishing electrical interconnect between two conventional circuit board assemblies, or to prove a platform for placing and interconnecting electronic components. During the planning and pre-design phase of the flexible circuit, there will be several material and process related questions that need to be addressed. Most flexible circuit fabricators welcome the opportunity to discuss their customers’ flexible circuit objectives prior to beginning the actual design process.
