Abstract :
A new generation of “Smart” thick film materials has been developed which extend the capability of conventional thick film technology. High density circuit designs that utilize the unique features of these materials are transitioning from development to full scale manufacturing. This paper reviews these materials and their processing. Diffusion PatterningTM, Fodel(R) and Green Tape(R) systems, and compatible materials for forming integral buried resistors and capacitors in ceramic thick film interconnects and multichip modules are described. Examples of advanced designs taking advantage of the features of these new materials systems are discussed
