Checkout this Thintronics® feature with Ansys / Synopsys Inc on how we use EM simulation and a full lifecycle validation (from raw film broadband dielecric characterization to finished product in-situ measurements) to ensure the highest fidelity correlation between predicted performance and measured results. This level of correlation requires everything to go right. From the correct experimental extraction of roughness models to rigorous VNA calibration, data acquisition and stellar de-embedding. As an ultra-low loss material supplier for Advanced Packaging, the burden of proof extends beyond just providing single-point specification. The work starts in the Chemistry lab, Analytics, Manufacturing, Process Integration, Micro-fabrication and EE/ME Engineering. https://lnkd.in/gWbFJbpv
👏 👏
Solid fundamental engineering and understanding of tradeoffs always trumps the faster rules of thumb or AI approach, but is justifiable if the extra time taken provides an economic suboptimazaiton.
