Plating hybrid microcircuits. Final report

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/7349312· OSTI ID:7349312
A nonproprietary and a proprietary gold plating bath were investigated to determine if they were capable of producing thick (76 ..mu..m) films for rf hybrid microcircuits. Both solutions were found to produce high purity, soft gold deposits over a wide range of plating conditions. Test circuits plated with 6, 10, and 25 ..mu..m gold deposits passed the HMC production requirements of bondability, through-hole resistance, and other electrical characteristics.
