Indium Corporation‘s Claire Hotvedt, CSMTPE, product development specialist, will present on low-temperature solders for printed circuit board (PCB) assembly at the SMTA Boise Expo & Tech Forum at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, April 5 in Boise, Idaho, U.S.
Low-temperature solders are already valuable process tools in the modern PCB assembly industry. However, high indium- and high bismuth-containing materials have drawbacks in regards to temperature sensitivity and mechanical shock reliability. Novel mixed alloy solder technology provides mid-to-high temperature solder properties while reducing reflow temperatures to 200. In her presentation, Hotvedt will give attendees a better understanding of the new mixed-alloy solder process and capabilities, sharing how new industries can now take advantage of the multi-step processing and material sets enabled by low-temperature solder.
