Indium Corporation® is set to introduce its newest Heat-Spring® pattern—HSx. Designed for large area dies with warpage challenges and pressure limitations, HSx will be introduced at TestConX 2025, taking place March 3-5 in Mesa, Arizona.

As a global leader in high-performance metal thermal interface materials (TIMs), Indium Corporation will showcase the following selections from its array of high-performance metal TIM solutions:

Heat-Spring® HSx (New)

  • Newest pattern designed for large area dies with warpage >200 microns
  • Effective thermal conductivity of 16W/m-K at only 20psi with pure indium
  • Designed for test heads where clamping forces are limited to <30psi
  • Thickness ranging from 300 micron up to 1mm
  • Available with or without a diffusion barrier to prevent staining of the die

Heat-Spring® HSD

  • The original and best standard option for interfaces with flat, smooth, and parallel surfaces
  • Designed for interfaces with tight surface control >30psi

Heat-Spring® High Profile Preforms

  • Patterned to optimize contact with non-planar surfaces delivering 86W/mK
  • Ideal for assemblies with an extruded, unfinished heat-sink
  • Recommended for immersion cooling and burn-in applications
  • Provides uniform contact between the burn-in head and the DUT
  • Provides more uniform thermal conductivity

Heat-Spring® HSK

  • Recommended specifically for burn-in applications where multiple insertions are required
  • Provides uniform contact with low resistance for high-density heat loads
  • Typically clad with a thin diffusion barrier, which serves as the contact surface for burn-in and test applications
  • No staining or cracking

All Heat-Spring® products are recyclable and reclaimable.
