Jonas Sjoberg and Damian Santhanasamy Indium Corporation during Productronica India 2022 talks about their soldering and electronics material leadership.
In this interview, O’Leary discusses some of the technical challenges faced in product development by Indium (and everyone else) as well as the new IPC e-Mobility council, which is open to participation by everyone.
With dozens of new electric vehicles coming to market in the U.S. in the next few years—many with a range of 300 miles—charger anxiety is now replacing range anxiety as a top buyer concern. Drivers need confidence that there are a sufficient number of working and available chargers in their communities and along their routes
EMSNOW Publisher Eric Miscoll discusses the latest developments in the critical electric vehicle market, with industry expert Brian O’Leary, Head of e-Mobility and Infrastructure at Indium Corporation. They discuss the impact of the latest regulations that are setting ever more stringent emissions goals for vehicles all over the globe.
Electrical, mechanical, and thermal stresses can negatively impact the performance of the final product and, with electric vehicles, the challenge is even greater. Requirements are more demanding for high-power electric engines which run almost non-stop between charging and driving cycles, along with myriad connected electronics within the car. Even the smallest dendritic growth can shut down an entire vehicle.
Brian O’Leary, Indium Corporation’s global head of e-mobility and infrastructure, joins Kaz Pearman from WNIE Radio on What’s New in Electronics to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing the global adoption of electric vehicles.

The EMS - Eric Miscoll Show With Philip Stoten back as co-host live from Cornwall, Eric Miscoll is joined by Zollner's Director of the Automotive Business Division Michael Kollmer and Indium's Global Head of e-Mobility & Infrastructure Brian O'Leary to explore the significant changes in the supply chain occurring as car makers move from internal combustion to electric vehicles.
While EVs may have much in common with consumer electronics, the combination of high voltages and powers, and the safety-critical nature of many of their systems, is providing some major headaches for printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) contractors and electronics manufacturing services (EMS) providers – headaches that vehicle OEMs won’t be able to cure with over-the-air software updates (writes Peter Donaldson).

PCB Chat One of my favorite subjects is the electrification of automobiles, not just electric cars, which are with us now, but completely autonomous vehicles., says Mike Konrad. In the 1960s, we were promised flying cars by the year 2000. While that goal was not met, the real prospect of autonomous vehicles in our lifetime is extremely exciting, terrifying, and realistic.

In today’s automotive marketplace of fast-moving electric vehicle start-ups and legacy OEMs trying to keep pace, speed to market seems to be the watchword. Customers are drawn to hip new technologies and gadgetry in the cockpit, and the exhilaration of mind-boggling acceleration and torque that electric vehicles can deliver. Meanwhile, though high quality and excellent reliability is expected by consumers, these criteria may be taking a back seat by manufacturers due to the “need for speed.”

When I look to 2022 I see some major industry trends driving growth in the electronics manufacturing industry. Automotive, particularly EVs, is one sector with huge growth and high potential.
As a global company, Indium Corporation had early insight for our pandemic response from previous experience combating SARS and MERS in our facilities in Asia. We established hygiene teams for each facility that implemented site control, health surveys, and social distancing.
The pandemic has not affected our primary mission—to continue to work collaboratively with our customers to inspire innovation and create cutting-edge solutions to the industry's current and emerging problems.
A challenging year for industry to say the least – and one that has forced companies to adapt by re-evaluating their existing practices and technologies.
