SMT Hybrid Packaging Offers Overview of Microelectronics Industry


Stuttgart, Germany — Scheduled to be held from June 5 to 7, 2018, in Nuremberg, Germany, SMT Hybrid Packaging will invite visitors to see the entire range of technical process- es in electronics production, from concept to completion. Numerous new exhibitors and


key players in the industry will offer a broad overview of the entire value chain, presenting new products and highlighting trends and develop- ments. Recently Mesago Messe Frankfurt, the organizer of the event, reported that the number of exhibiting companies is larger than last year. This year, a “newcomer pavil-


ion” offers cost-effective pricing and a full-service package for companies that wish to exhibit at the trade show without much organizational effort. There are also other joint booths planned, such as “Mixed Double — PCB Meets Component” and “EMS Intersection.” The mixed PCB and components booth will display circuit boards, modules and materials, while the EMS booth is a joint platform for contract manufacturers. Optoelec - tronics products and solutions will be on display at the nearby “Optics Meets Electronics” booth. On June 6, a range of tutorials in English will be given. Sessions


KYZEN’s Dr. Bixenman to Present at Harsh


Environments Conference


Nashville, TN — KYZEN’s Mike Bixenman, DBA, will present at the SMTA Electronics in Harsh Environ - ments Conference, April 24 to 26, 2018, at the Crowne Plaza Amsterdam, Netherlands. The conference is focused on


building reliable electronics that operate within harsh environments. Dr. Bixenman will present “Mater - ials Characterization Under Lead - less Component Bodies” and will dis- cuss the results from his research to qualify and validate assembly processes as it relates to materials and cleaning using alternative test board design features to determine


the risk of failure. “This conference is a great


resource for engineers of all levels,” explains Dr. Bixenman. “Materials in electronics packaging continue to evolve in response to complex manu- facturing and reliability require- ments, particularly those that must work within aggressive operating environments.” Experts from industry and aca-


demia will present on predicting component life, solder alloys that can withstand high operating tempera- tures, test methods for harsh envi- ronments, electrochemical reliability
