Sintering in electronics assembly, is a bonding technique where high melting temperature metals such as silver or copper are used to form highly reliable interconnects with superior thermal and electrical conductivity. Sintering is a process of steady-state interdiffusion, the metal particles fuse together and fuse with the surfaces being bonded once sufficient heat is applied. Sintering can be performed pressure-less or with applied pressure. Indium Corporation offer both silver and copper sinter pastes for both pressure and pressure-less processes.
Indium Corporation provides a range of sinter pastes tailored for various applications. The InFORCE® series is optimized for pressure sintering, while the InBAKE™ series is ideal for traditional pressureless sintering. For fast, small-area sintering, the QuickSinter® series delivers exceptional performance, ensuring rapid and efficient results.
Sintering techniques and materials are widely used in the power electronics industry for packaging and assembly, as well as in markets like automotive and e-mobility.

A little over a year ago, I posted about the increase in interest regarding Cu sintering. In the past 12 months, that interest has has surged, highlighting Cu sintering's suitability for various
Interconnect reliability is critical to the reliability of semiconductor packaging and electronic systems. If we look at the life cycle from the chip to the system—from IC design, wafer fab,
In recent years, silver sinter materials have grown in popularity in power module assembly, especially for die attach. When compared to traditional solders, silver sinter offers numerous benefits
One of the most unique features of any sintering material, including our QuickSinter® material, is that it does not need to reach or remain above a liquidus temperature like traditional solder.
