July, 2011 Christopher Associates: New Solar Technologies
Santa Ana, CA — Christopher Associates Inc. now has available an extensive range of new technologies aimed at photovoltaic manufactur- ing. The latest sealants and potting compounds come from Tonsan, Asian manufacturer of frame sealants and potting compounds used in module manufacturing. A new module lamination tech-
nology is being shown from Orient, China’s largest module laminator manufacturer. Zoomlight high per- formance FFC/PET/FFC backsheet material is made for photovoltaic module manufacturing. Zoomlight backsheet materials are UL, TUV,
and SGS certified, and are in high- volume use by several of the world’s largest photovoltaic module manu- facturers. PV tabbing and stringing rib-
bons from Sunlight, a specialist in tabbing and bussing PV Ribbons, are intended for both mono/polycrys- talline module and thin film module manufacturing. GSMC photovoltaic metalliza-
tion pastes are part of the company’s entire new range of front- and back- side metallization pastes for cell manufacturing. Also available from Christopher Associates are equipment and mate-
rials including: the MAGNUS HD high-definition inspection system which reportedly offers the highest image quality in the industry along with excellent ergonomics. Measure - ment capability, magnifications up to 104X, and true 1080P performance provide a versatility and range of applications reportedly not available elsewhere. Another product is the new
Koki S01X7C48-M500 low silver alloy solder paste. With spiraling metals costs, the new, patented for- mulation offers excellent melting and wetting (<0.3mm dia CSP 0603 Chip) at super fine pitch, low-halide con-
tent (CL+BR<1500 ppm), and excel- lent printability and process parame- ters, while reducing material costs substantially.

Finally, a Pb-free solder paste that takes a shine to ENIG/gold PC boards.
Introducing NC-560-LF, the Pb-free no-clean solder paste designed for hard-to-solder metallization surfaces
Nothing increases production yields like AMTECH’s NC-560-LF, the lead-free, no-clean solder paste for hard-to-solder metallization surfaces, including ENIG (Gold),OSP, HASL and immersion silver
boards.This fully RoHS-compliant solder paste delivers unparalleled lot-to-lot and stencil printing consistency, and enhanced solderability due to superior print performance characteristics, including excellent wetting and activity, ideal viscosity, long stencil life, thermal stability up to 300
o C, and minimal residue. NC-560-LF
solder paste is also low beading, low voiding, and anti-tombstoning to reduce scrap and rework. Looking to strike it rich with greater hourly throughput? CallAMTECH today, and you’ll be golden.

100-400 Watt Load Share Eval Board from PSUI
Wrentham, MA — Power Sources Unlimited, Inc. has released its Integrated Power Designs NXT Series Load Share Evaluation Board. The load sharing feature of the
NXT-100, 175, 225, 325 and 400 watt single-output ITE and medical switching power supplies allows for accurate current sharing between two or more power supplies. This fea- ture is suitable for N+1 redundant systems or high current applications

where two or more power supplies need to be paralleled. Current shar- ing is achieved through a single wire connection (share bus) common to all of the paralleled power supplies. The load share evaluation board is designed to demonstrate an optimum layout to assist the user with paral- leling two NXT series power sup- plies, in computer, telecom, industri- al, medical and other high reliability distributed power systems.
