3 Conformal Coating Introduction Improves and extends the working life and reliability of electronic components. Conformal Coats are thin layers of synthetic resins or organic polymers applied to electronic assemblies. Coating protects against environmental, mechanical, thermal, electrical, vibration and chemical challenges. Mitigates manufacturing issues related to RoHS mandated removal of lead from printed circuit board fabrication and printed circuit assembly operations. Coatings are thin and conform to the irregular shape of the boards and their components. Potting Introduction The encapsulating and casting of an electronic device is also a method of coating or sealing circuit board assemblies, cables and harnesses. Unlike Conformal Coating potting does not conform to irregular shapes of components. Potting provides all of the same environmental protection and electrical performance stabilization as coating, but it also provides a security function for protecting a classified device or prevention of reverse engineering attempts. The Potting method uses a custom formed “Pot” or case/shell to put the entire device into, the compound is then introduced and the device sealed. Products & Applications Conformal Coating and Potting Represent 90% of Plasma Revenues Plasma Ruggedized Solutions Plasma Ruggedized Solutions Proprietary and Confidential

4 Competitive Differentiation Plasma Ruggedized Solutions Short Lead-Time Customer Requirements Customer production schedule demands are typically < 50 hours and usually require intensive engineering and “First Article” testing and or Qualification of engineering production processes. Physical proximity is important High-Barrier Technical Problem-Solving Orientation Customer engineering needs usually demand “face to face” conferences and technical interactions to assure and address engineering changes and concerns. Plasma is considered a “Last Stop” for resolution of hard to apply/engineered Coatings and Potting materials. Plasma provides repair and overhaul of other supplier and customer rejected hardware featuring IP equipment and Plasma Etch technology of our own design. Complex Application Capabilities: Plasma features a broad spectrum of highly engineered chemical and mechanical technologies for asymmetric and complex PCB’s/electronic assemblies for ruggedization, security and performance enhancement. Customer designs may feature somewhat fluid technical baselines or require rapid rework to effect desired performance. Structural Inhibitors to Offshore Sourcing Product restrictions on offshore sourcing for military and medical applications ITAR (International Traffic and Arms Regulations) and State Department Regulations on technology control and transfer limit the supply chain to domestic sources and manufacturing agents. Medical assemblies are generally manufactured locally due to their unique technical and performance requirements and small lot sizes.

14 Tin Whisker Mitigation and Layered Coating Solutions Plasma Ruggedized Solutions Tin whiskers are not a new phenomenon. Tin whiskers have been noted as early as the 1950s. Tin is only one of several metals that are known to be capable of growing whiskers. Other examples of metals that may form whiskers include Zinc, Cadmium, Indium and Antimony. Tin whiskers are believed to grow in order to relieve mechanical stresses acting within the tin layer. Whiskers grow at a rate of 3-7 angstroms per second and can see an annual growth of 9-10 mm per year. Tin whiskers, as the name implies, are hair-like growths of near perfect single crystalline structures of tin that grow from some electroplated tin surfaces.

15 Tin Whisker Mitigation and Layered Coating Solutions Plasma Ruggedized Solutions The “Layered Approach” combines multiple, established conformal coating processes, with innovative surface treatments in specific sequences to strengthen the barrier against tin whisker growth. An extremely clean surface, properly prepared with multiple layers of Parylene (XY) and urethane (UR) coatings can provide excellent resistance to whisker growth. Potting &/or Encapsulation methods using a layered approach provide a solid barrier than can retard growth as well as contain a whisker preventing migration.

20 Potting & Encapsulation Plasma Ruggedized Solutions Potting / Encapsulation is the process used to protect “ruggedize” electronics. Potting provides protection from extreme environments, against shock and vibration, ensures security of sensitive designs, as well as creates a barrier against moisture, fungus, dust, and corrosion. Potting can also enhance circuit reliability by reducing leakage from high voltage circuits, protecting against voltage arcs and short circuits and by preventing the formation of “tin whiskers.” Potting or Encapsulating a circuit can make it Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) compliant. Because Potting and Encapsulating encloses the entire assembly, the assembly is protected from unauthorized entry, modification and reverse engineering.
