International Manufacturing Services (IMS) Exhibits At The Components For Military & Space Electronics Conference And Exhibiton (CMSE)

International Manufacturing Services, Inc, a leading manufacturer of high-reliability thick and thin film passive components, will showcase its latest RF and thermal management technologies at the 29^th Annual Components for Military & Space Electronics (CMSE) Conference & Exhibition.

At Booth B22, IMS will highlight advanced resistive and attenuation solutions engineered for mission-critical military and space platforms operating in extreme thermal and electrical environments. Attendees will have the opportunity to meet with IMS engineering experts to discuss application-specific challenges in RF attenuation stability, high-power dissipation, and board-level thermal management. Featured products will include High Power AlN Resistors (N-Series), RF-optimized resistors for microwave and low passive intermodulation applications (PIM), thin film fixed and temperature variable attenuators (AV-0805 & AV-0607 Series), broadband resistive splitters, and ThermaBridge and ThermaPlane AlN ceramic thermal transfer devices.

As part of the CMSE technical program, Wes Laquerre, Applications Engineering Manager at IMS, will present: “Predicting TVA Attenuation Across Temperature Using Measurement-Based Mathematical Models.”

“In mission-critical military and space systems, predictable attenuation across temperature is not optional—it is fundamental to maintaining signal integrity and calibration stability,” said Wes Laquerre, Applications Engineering Manager at IMS. “Our measurement-based modeling approach gives engineers greater confidence during design, qualification, and environmental validation.” Laquerre’s session will cover empirical characterization of attenuation versus temperature, development of measurement-based mathematical models, correlation of TCR-driven resistive behavior to RF attenuation performance, and strategies to improve predictability in wide-temperature, high-reliability environments.

The session will provide practical methodologies engineers can use to model TVA performance across the extended temperature ranges common to aerospace and defense platforms.

Engineers and program managers attending CMSE are invited to visit IMS at Booth B22 to discuss application-specific requirements in RF attenuation stability, high-power resistive performance, and advanced thermal management for military and space systems.
