Indium Offers Solder Paste and Reinforced Preforms
Clinton, NY — Indium Corporation has developed a halogen-free, no-
to reduce voiding while delivering high transfer efficiency with low variability. The no-clean paste is good for a
variety of applications, especially automotive, due to its oxidation barri- er technology. In addition to outstand- ing print transfer and re sponse-to- pause, the solder paste also provides a number of other benefits, including excellent pin-in-paste solderability and hole fill, robust reflow capability, and a wide process window. The company also offers its InFORMS®, which are reinforced sol-
der preforms designed to maintain constant bondline thickness and improve thermal cycling reliability. This is a key requirement in many applications, including die-attach and baseplate attach for IGBTs. According to a study reported
by the company, InFORMS were used to solder a DBC and baseplate of an IGBT and achieved four times the thermal cycling reliability when compared with a preform only approach, two times the thermal cycling reliability when compared with a preform and wirebond stitch
approach, and less than one percent voiding throughout. The preforms also offer a low cost of ownership, as they can be used as a drop-in replace- ment for standard preforms or solder paste and require no additional
process steps or equipment. Contact: Indium Corp., 34

New Optilia Inspection Equipment Distributed
by Ascentech Chester, CT — Ascentch, the North American distributor for Optilia Instruments AB and for Gen3 Sys - tems, is introducing new products from each company to the North American market. Ascentech is launching Optilia’s high-definition camera system and Gen3’s solder saver, a solder/dross separation tool. The distributor also offers the Gensonic ultrasonic stencil cleaner, Optilia’s BGA inspection scope, and many other products. Optilia offers obstruction-free,
fatigue-free, HD benchtop inspection systems for PCB assembly and real- time BGA inspection. Gen3’s solder saver is a handheld, compact system for separating dross from good sol- der. The unit easily reduces hard- ened dross material to oxide powder making it possible to remove the dross oxide waste from the solder pot, leaving valuable solder in the
