Product Overview

CircuEtch 300 is a high-performance flash etching process for circuit formation in Semi-Additive (SAP) and modified-Semi Additive Processing (mSAP) of Integrated Circuit (IC) substrates and Substrate-Like High Density Interconnect (HDI). This highly stable process precisely etches copper at the base of traces without undercut, maintaining trace shapes and adhesion to the substrate.

The high-speed etching capability is easily maintained within a wide operating window. Given the dimensions involved in substrate manufacturing, the final etch process must be extremely stable and repeatable to avoid introducing costly errors after the layer build-up process is nearly complete. The process delivers a stable etching rate across a wide operating window for primary additives, copper, sulfuric acid, and temperature.

It excels in etching a variety of copper types, including electrodeposited thin foils and electroless copper, while carefully treating electroplated pattern plates on traces to maintain critical circuit dimensions.
