SelectConnect Technologies and LPKF USA Announce Joint Laser Direct Structuring (LDS) Webinar Series


Palatine, IL (PRWEB) October 28, 2011

SelectConnect Technologies and LPKF Laser and Electronics announce a joint webinar series “3D Antennas on Plastic – Laser Direct Structuring of 3D Circuits”

Laser Direct Structuring (LDS) is a process in which circuitry and/or an antenna pattern are laser etched directly onto the surface of a thermoplastic molded component or chassis. The thermoplastic is “doped” with a compund that once laser activated accepts metalization creating a conductive path.

Cost savings associated with LDS are achieved through a reduction of assembly times, an increase of assembly yeild and a reduction in the number of parts.

This webinar will show how to put more function into less space using laser direct structured (LDS) 3-D circuitry without investing capital or spending a lot of time.

Discussions include:

Laser Direct Structuring (LDS): what it is, how it works

Design considerations

Real world examples of LDS to stimulate ideas

Getting started with a project

Dates for the webinar series are November 3, 8 and 17. Register to attend.
