As one of the leading materials providers in the electronics assembly and solder industries, Indium Corporation® is proud to feature its lineup of high-reliability products at PCIM Europe, taking place May 6-8, in Nuremberg, Germany.
Indium Corporation specializes in power device packaging, offering a portfolio of advanced material solutions encompassing the entire assembly, including die-attach, top-side die interconnect, substrate-attach, package-attach, and PCB assembly. Central to this innovation is Indium Corporation’s Fluxless Assembly Solder Technology (FAST), which provides high-reliability, flux-free soldering solutions for next-generation power electronics.
With a commitment to the full scope of power electronics applications, Indium Corporation offers the right-sized options to align with nearly every application requirement, with a focus on sustainable, energy-efficient technology solutions. The company will showcase the following among its featured products:
Pb-Free Innovations:
- Durafuse® HT is an innovative Pb-free solution designed to deliver a high-temperature lead-free (HTLF) paste for discrete power electronics devices. Durafuse® HT can “drop in” to the current high-Pb die-attach paste process, with no special equipment needed. Functional performance and thermal cycling reliability are both equal to or higher than a high-Pb solder.
- Indalloy®301LT for Preforms/InFORMS® is a novel Pb-free alloy that enables lower reflow processing temperatures compared to SAC alloys, preventing delamination and reducing warpage in package-attach soldering applications.
Die-Attach Solutions:
- InFORCE® Pressure Sinter Pastes are high-metal, low-organic content sinter materials available in both silver and copper. The benefits of a low-organic content composition include short drying for increased throughput and less volume reduction between wet and post-sintered deposits, meaning less paste can be used. The portfolio includes:
- InFORCE®29 – a range of pressure Cu sinter pastes for applications where high reliability and high thermal conductivity are critical. Applications for InFORCE®29 include die-attach for Si and SiC power devices and substrate-attach of power modules directly to coolers.
- InFORCE®MF – a proven pressure Ag sinter paste designed for SiC die-attach application. InFORCE®MF is specially formulated for printing and dry-placement processes. This paste offers outstanding die shear strength, thermal conductivity, and mechanical reliability.
- Award-winning InFORMS® are reinforced solder preforms that improve mechanical strength and produce consistent bondline thickness for superior reliability performance compared to traditional solder preforms, particularly in power module applications.
- InTACK® is a no-clean, no residue, halogen-free adhesive solution developed for holding parts in place during placement and reflow processes.
Thermal Reliability:
- Indalloy®276 is a unique lead-free solder alloy that offers a wide service temperature capability and improved reliability up to 175°C. It has demonstrated high-reliability performance while also being capable at both moderate and high service temperature conditions.
- Durafuse® HR, a trusted and proven solder paste alloy technology, delivers enhanced thermal cycling performance (-40°C/125°C and -40°C/150°C) and superior voiding performance for high-reliability automotive applications. It also offers reduced solder joint cracking and increased shear strength.
