The specified values represent the maximum performance spectrum and may be restricted in certain combinations.

Cavity describes the production of one or more defined cavity in the PCB. The components are contacted electrically and mechanically using various methods.

The soldering process is used to place components on a PCB and embed them in the subsequent laminating multilayer in its composite. The electrical contact is made via the rewiring in the multilayer.

The components are bonded to a multilayer component, laminated into the composite and electrically connected by means of laser and subsequent electroplating. The components used have a terminal contact adapted to this technology.
