REPORT DESCRIPTION<br />

<strong>Liquid</strong> <strong>Photoimageable</strong> <strong>Solder</strong> <strong>Mask</strong> <strong>Market</strong>: Overview<br />

<strong>Solder</strong> masks are referred to as solder stop masks or solder resist masks. They are thin lacquer-like layer of<br />

polymers, which are usually applied to the copper traces of a printed circuit board (PCB) for protection against<br />

oxidation. This lacquer-like layer lads to the formation of solder bridges between closely spaced solder pads. <strong>Liquid</strong><br />

<strong>Photoimageable</strong> <strong>Solder</strong> <strong>Mask</strong> (LPISM or LPSM or LPI) is an electronic material of alkali type. LIPSM is a dual-cured<br />

system used in UV-curing and thermal curing. LPISM is used for the application of printed circuit boards (PCB) in<br />

almost all electronics products.<br />

A solder bridge is an unintended electrical connection between two conductors by means of a small blob of solder.<br />

<strong>Liquid</strong> imageable solder mask is not always used for hand soldered assemblies, but is essentially used for massproduced<br />

boards that are soldered automatically using reflow or solder bath techniques. <strong>Solder</strong> mask comes in<br />

different media depending upon the demands of the application. LPSM can be silkscreened or sprayed on the PCB,<br />

exposed to the connectivity mesh pattern, and developed to provide openings in the pattern for parts to be soldered<br />

to the copper pads. DFSM is vacuum laminated on the PCB and then exposed and developed. In electronic design<br />

automation, the solder mask is treated as a layer of the printed circuit board, and is described as a Gerber file akin<br />

to any other layer such as copper and silkscreen layers.
