7. Molded Interconnect Devices
• The use of high
temperature thermoplastics
and their structured
metallization opens up a
new dimension of circuit
carrier design to the
electronic industry: Molded
Interconnect Devices (MID).
MID are injected molded
thermoplastic parts with
integrated circuit traces.

10. MID Process in Short
• Injection molding
• Laser processing (LDS)
• Metallization
10
- LDS is a mature, robust technology
- Cell Phone Antenna production is
largest application, with ten’s of
millions produced annually
- Europe is currently experiencing
rapid growth in automotive, with
BMW taking the lead, medical
devices, antennas systems, sensors
and RF-ID tags
