Alpha to Present Technical Paper on Low Voiding High Reliability Solder Paste at IPC Technical Conference in India
September 1, 2016 | Alpha Assembly SolutionsEstimated reading time: 3 minutes
Alpha Assembly Solutions will be presenting a technical paper titled “Low Voiding High Reliability Solder Paste for Automotive, LED and other Demanding Applications” at the IPC India Technical Conference to be held on September 22, 2016.
Electronic assemblies used in automotive, telecommunications, high power LEDs, and other demanding applications require soldering materials that can withstand high temperature, vibration, thermal shock and other harsh conditions. For example, electronics in automotive applications typically require enhanced vibration and thermal cycling performance. Assemblies in telecommunications require enhanced thermal cycling, while assemblies in lighting (high power LEDs) require creep-resistant material at high operating temperatures.
In order to meet these various demanding applications, a new high reliability, RoHS-compliant alloy was developed. This paper will cover the reliability properties of the new alloy. Further, a new halogen-free flux vehicle system was optimized for this alloy. Following this, case studies for two applications, Automotive and LED Lighting, are covered in this paper.
