Webinar | Designing Structural Electronics

Altium Designer

| Created: May 13, 2020 | Updated: May 21, 2020

Altium, a leading global developer of software for electronics design, and TactoTek, the leader in Injection Molded Structural Electronics (IMSE™) technology, invite you to participate in a joint webinar "Designing Structural Electronics".

As part of the webinar, attendees will be informed of the IMSE process and how this can reduce cost and weight of a project. Attendees will also observe how Structural Electronics are designed and managed using Altium Designer® and the new cloud platform, Altium 365.

Join this joint webinar to learn the following:

Understand Structural Electronics (IMSE).
Creating the PCB layer stack for Structural Electronics.
Automatically create the Isolation pads layer.
Creating output data for Structural Electronics (IMSE).

PCB Solder mask expansion

What Solder Mask Expansion Value Should You Use? The solder stop mask layer caps off the PCB and provides a protective film over copper on the surface layers. Solder mask needs to be pulled back from landing pads on the surface layer so that you have a surface where components can be mounted and soldered. This removal of the solder mask from a pad on the top layer should extend some distance around the edge of the pad, creating either NSMD or SMD pads for your components. How far back should Read Article
