Simulation
The AT&S “Advanced Interconnect Solution Services” (AISS) department acts as a service center for simulation services within the company. AT&S can thus access comprehensive knowledge and state-of-the-art characterization methods for mechanical and electrical properties of base materials. This knowledge, for example of directional mechanical properties within a PCB or substrate material, allows precise modelling and improved simulations.
We can identify twisting and warpage problems or even problems in the reflow process so our customers can be mitigate them at an early stage. This can reduce the number of production rejects significantly. Moreover, the complex models allow conclusions on the reliability of vias and solder connections of a PCBA, which ultimately leads to a more reliable product.
Simulation by AT&S is the basis for virtual product development, which enables faster time-to-market and conserves valuable resources.
Simulation benefits at a glance
- We detect errors as early as the design phase
- AT&S is a leader in the simulation of electronic circuits
- We develop our own customized simulation tools
Virtual First: AT&S focuses on virtual development
In this blog article you will learn how AT&S has acquired unique knowledge in the fields of material characterization and simulation over the past ten years, enabling customers to carry out expensive development processes virtually instead of of testing physical prototypes at great expense.
Where reliability meets high-performance interconnects
Our simulation team is able to compare systems with different configurations and materials virtually to evaluate the relevant mechanical, electrical and thermal properties precisely. The fundament for our virtual development is a unique materials database that we have built up and continuously expanded over the course of our many years of research and production.
We know the materials that are necessary to produce modern microelectronics better than any other supplier, because we have painstakingly tested and characterized them in detail. Our experts are constantly working to expand the database to keep up with new technological developments. This proprietary information makes our simulations more accurate, which helps to eliminate the need for costly trials with elaborately manufactured physical prototypes.
