2 The Company CISTELAIER was established in 1998 by merging two Italian companies operating in the Printed Circuit Boards manufacturing, say: Cistel, founded in 1976 in Genoa and Laier, founded in 1986 in Modena Two Business Units: Genoa and Modena, where the Headquarters are located The overall headcount is 135 people, more than 10% are employed in R&D and Engineering Dept On average, the 75% of the current production is made up of medium-high layer count Multilayers and Rigid-Flex, with several standard and exotic materials Cistelaier is part of FinMasi, a large industrial Italian group with an overall turnover of 270M, operating in different sectors, among the others: Steel: first and secondary services Electronics: PCBs; industrial sensors (standard and on demand)

3 Our Mission Offering our service flexibility and engineering capability Sharing our know-how in technology and manufacturing, as we recognize the PCB as a strategic electronic component becoming more and more an active and integrated element Continually investing resources to assure the Customer the state of art technology Supporting our Customer with CO-DESIGN projects, to help him manage the ever increasing complexity of electronic devices

4 Quality System Management Cistelaier quality system is ISO 9001 recognised Since 1998 Cistelaier has been recognized from Underwriters Laboratories with the UL94V-0 certification and UL796 DSR extension for rigid boards (file number E73444) UL 94V-0 for rigid-flex approval within December Other standards which Cistelaier complies with: MIL-P and MIL-P (military standard for rigid and rigid-flex boards) IPC 6012, IPC 6013, etc All printed circuit boards are produced in compliance with IPC A600G standards, Class 2 or 3 according to customer s specifications. Additionally, Cistelaier is implementing a new Integrated Quality Management System including four different standards, within July 2010: Automotive: ISO/TS16949:2008 Railway: IRIS International Railway Industry Standard Aerospace: UNI EN 9100: 2008 Medical devices: UNI EN ISO 13485: 2004 Besides, Cistelaier plans to get NadCap accreditation by May 2011.

7 HDI PCB High Density Interconnect Characterization Design Approach Capability Build up Vias Formation

8 High Density Interconnect Printed Circuit Board HDI is used to reduce size and weight, as well as to enhance electrical performances. High density interconnects (HDI) are defined as substrates or boards with a higher wiring density per unit area than conventional printed circuit boards (PCB); they have finer lines and spaces (<100µm), smaller vias (<150µm) and capture pads (<400µm), and higher connection pad density (>20 pads/cm2) than employed in conventional PCB technology. In addition to HDI, terms such as "build-up board" in Japan and "sequential build-up (SBU)" or "microvia technology" in the U.S. can be used interchangeably

9 How to approach HDI Printed Circuit Board? Cistelaier Co-Design and DFM Validation.. Co-Design and DFM analysis in the early stages of PCB design in order to check the manufacturability aspects of he design DFM validation is part of every PCB layout process and ensures that the designs will smoothly pass PCB anufacturing, assembly and testing (boundary scan technology) The design validation includes: checks on tracks/spacings, unterminated traces, copper features, route cleanup, iducials, drill features, soldermask/solderpaste openings, impedance/stack requirements and many other onstraints which influence manufacturability... Cistelaier R&D Vision: providing best technology for future interconnection needs! Cistelaier Research & Development is the driving force to identify new technology options and create new interconnection solutions. We do this by continuously scanning and developing potential novel technologies, and monitoring closely the application scenarios offered by the advancements in avionics/military, telecom, automotive and other business sectors. Our goal is to provide insight into new technologies, reduce the cycle time to introduction of new technologies into the production and thereby enable the continued support of our customers.

13 Standard Build up his construction describes an HDI board in which there are both blind vias and through vias used for nterconnection. Type 1 constructions describe the fabrication of a single blind via layer on either one or oth sides of an PCB substrate core. he PCB substrate is typically manufactured using conventional PCB techniques and laser via hole echnology. The substrate can have as few as one circuit layer or may be as complex as any number of nner layers.

14 Sequential Build up 1+N+1 ype II constructions have the same number of HDI layers as Type I: has two buried vias in the core ubstrate formed prior to applying the HDI dielectric layers. Both vias connect layer 2 to layer n-1; the uried via on the left is filled with HDI dielectric resin: completed filling is guarantee with vacuum press; the ight one is filled with different resin, this operation can be made using resin from Peters or Taiyo. This way t is possible to laser drill over the pad that is plated and reduce space during the design.

15 Sequential Build up X+N+X Type III constructions describe an HDI in which there are plated microvias, paste/resin filled holes and through vias used for interconnection. Type III constructions are distinguished by having at least two microvia layers on at least one side of a substrate core. The sub-strate core is usually manufactured using conventional PCB techniques, may be rigid or flexible, and have as few as one or as many as any number of layers with buried vias.

23 High Density Interconnect Printed Circuit Board Flex and Rigid Flex examples of HDI application

24 Flex and Rigid Flex HDI application Why Flex and Flex-Rigid Technology? Flex& Flex-Rigid PCB s have been widely used in a variety of applications and markets for many years where space and size is critical to its function as an interconnect either between connectors or to other rigid PCB s. At Cistelaier, we are seeing more and more customers migrate to Flex& Flex-Rigids due to the benefits of its construction also on commercial use, some examples as follows: 3D Interconnect 1 part component (as apposed to multiple rigid PCB s and wiring looms) Increased reliability - Space saver Reduced labour costs at assembling - Fully tested as one pc component - 1 part inventory Product realisation utilises the same controlled and audited manufacturing processes as used for conventional Multi- Layer technologies; Cistelaier have approached technologies manufactured range: Very simple double-sided Flex for Commercial applications Multi-Layer Flex-Rigids for Formula 1, Military Flight Complex Blind and Micro Vias for Medical, Aerospace and Semiconductor applications.

29 High Density Interconnect Printed Circuit Board When power meets the HDI concept

30 High Frequency and High Power All modern power supply, DCDC converters are now the best example for HDI application in power modules. To maximize the power fully buried vias layup is usually used, both for planar and inductors planar design need, to minimize the space using via in pad Multilayer board, 16 layer for DC-DC Converter : Heavy copper:3 and 6 Oz; High TG material Burried vias Multilayer board, 14 layer for Planar transformer application : 2 Heavy copper layer 5 and 6 Oz; High TG material

31 High Density Interconnect Printed Circuit Board What we see in the near future.

32 Line forming technology and trends ith current Direct Laser Imaging technology, 1 nd 2 mils line space are not a limit; the roblem will be the etching, and for this reason roduction cycle is going in the direction of dditive process. e will metallize special base material ncladded specially designed with a minimum -3um of chemical copper, then after imaging, e will make plating of 5 10um to form the ine.

33 for the future! Our R&D department is hardly working on reduction of line/space and mixed layup structure with inside low thickness prepreg to minimize aspect ratio for total sequential build up.
