March, 2012 BPM: 8th Gen Automated Programming
Houston, TX — BPM Microsystems is demonstrating its 8th Generation model 3800 automated programming system and model 2800 manual pro- gramming system. The company’s latest series of device programmers combines the speed of Vector Engine Co-Processor® with BitBlast technol- ogy plus true universal device sup- port, resulting in what it calls the fastest universal programmer in the industry. The 8th Gen product line supports microcontrollers, NAND flash, NOR flash, Serial flash, Managed NAND flash, E/EPROM, flash EPROM, and other technolo-
gies with densities up to an 8 Eb the- oretical limit. It also supports devices with voltage down to 0.7Vdd. The ultra-fast programming speed of the 3800 and 2800 is attributed to the company’s Vector Engine Co- Processor, the same proven technolo- gy that established Flashstream® as the fastest flash-dedicated program- mer. The unusual co-processor design hardware accelerates wave- forms during the programming cycle. Faster speeds are achieved through synchronous operations, eliminating dead time so that the device under test no longer waits for the program-
mer. The result is programming near the theoretical limits of the silicon design; the faster the device, the faster the device is programmed. The model 3800 uses the same proven robust design as the company’s 3000 series device handling system. Integrated into the 3800 is the LaserAlign™ sensor
from
CyberOptics®, which assures repeat- able pick-and-place accuracy and high performance during the pro- gramming process. The programmer also offers flexible options for input and output media with choices of tray, tape or tube.
Suitable for mid- to high-vol-
ume production, the model 3800 can utilize up to 16 socket cards. The model 2800 was designed as a low- volume production programmer and can utilize up to four socket cards. Multiple 2800s can be connected to expand the concurrent programming session.
More economical and efficient
than competitive “gang” cards that are soldered to a common printed cir- cuit board, these socket cards can be optimized and replaced individually without dramatically affecting pro- gramming capacity. With optional receptacle-base
socket cards, customers can simply purchase the consumable socket as needed.
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.

Edge angled blade tip for probing vias.
high frequency coaxial, high current and battery interconnect markets. ECT’s CSG is highlighting the
Edge™ (patent pending) — a new sharp, aggressive and shallow angle blade tip for reliable via probing on PCBs. It works by incorporating ECT’s patented ZIP® flat technology manufacturing cost advantages. It is fully replaceable in current fixtures with 100 mill receptacles installed. atg-LM is showcasing the A5a Flying Probe Test System — an automated tester for rigid PCBs. The system uses a soft touch probe, eight test heads and Kelvin 4-Wire testing. A fully automatic loading, test and stacker system handles PCBs of var- ious sizes in succession without any manual intervention. Everett Charles Technologies is
