Ticer Technologies was founded in 1884 under the name Gould Electronic Materials and has become a leading manufacturer of electrodeposited copper foil. In 1999, Gould developed TCR®, an embedded resistor technology. This next-generation material provides solutions for new, aggressive applications and meets the performance demands of advanced printed circuit boards.
Materials & Applications
Ticer manufactures high-performance, thin-film embedded resistor copper foil for digital and RF printed circuit boards. Its next-generation technology for embedded resistors is uniquely suited to meet challenges posed by new designs and materials and increase performance requirements for current and future electronic packages.
Enhanced by the capability and reliability of TCR, Ticer’s solutions use the latest in advanced laminate systems.
Cirexx commonly uses TCR in the fabrication of PCBs; the material is designed to be used as an embedded layer of resistors that are created using a standard PCB print and etch process. In addition to being RoHS-compliant, TCR is compatible with a wide variety of resin systems, including standard, high performance, lead-free, and specialty products.
TCR increases available space for components, reduces the weight of the PCB, and improves overall product performance. It also provides exceptional thermal stability.
