Indium Corporation will feature its reinforced solder alloy fabrications, InFORMS®, at APEC 2017, March 26-30, in Tampa, Fla.
InFORMS are reinforced solder preforms that increase lateral strength and stability. As a result, improved thermal cycling reliability can be achieved.
In one study where InFORMS were used to solder a DBC to the baseplate of an IGBT, the following were achieved:
- 4-fache Verbesserung der Zuverlässigkeit bei Temperaturwechseln im Vergleich zu einem reinen Lötpreform-Ansatz
- Zweifach verbesserte Zuverlässigkeit bei Temperaturwechseln im Vergleich zu einem Ansatz mit Lötvorform und Al-Drahtbond-Stitch
- Low-voiding of <1%
- Lower cost of ownership – an InFORM is a drop-in replacement for a standard preform or solder paste, requiring no additional process steps or equipment
