Indium Expert to Present on AI Thermal Challenges at INEMI Forum on Complex Integrated Electronics
August 26, 2025 | Indium CorporationEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Indium Corporation Assistant Product Manager Foo Siang Hooi will deliver a technical presentation on addressing thermal challenges in AI and high-performance computing (HPC) with metal-based thermal interface materials (TIMs) at the International Electronics Manufacturing Initiative (INEMI) Forum on Complex Integrated Electronics, to be held September 17-18 in Penang, Malaysia.
The presentation, Enabling AI with Metal TIM: Addressing Thermal Challenges Across TIM1, 1.5, and 2, will focus on the role of metal-based TIMs in addressing key challenges across TIM1, TIM1.5, and TIM2 interfaces, including the need to reduce thermal resistance, minimize voiding, and enhance mechanical reliability under thermal cycling. Metal TIMs provide high thermal conductivity, excellent structural stability, and reliable performance across a range of interface conditions, including warped or non-planar surfaces.
“As AI and HPC systems continue to advance, thermal management has become essential to support increasing power densities and packaging complexity,” said Foo. “By highlighting application insights and recent advancements, this presentation will provide a practical perspective on how metal TIMs are enabling next-generation AI and HPC packaging through more reliable, efficient thermal solutions.”
As assistant product manager at Indium Corporation, Foo plays a pivotal role in driving the company’s business development and expansion of engineered solder products across the Asia region. His responsibilities include delivering technical and commercial training on application technologies and products, as well as ensuring a comprehensive understanding for clients and stakeholders.
Foo earned a bachelor’s degree with honors in electronics engineering from Multimedia University in Malaysia. He is also a Six Sigma Green Belt and ISO 9000 certified.
The presentation will take place on Thursday, September 18, at 10:50 a.m.

Elementary, Mr. Watson: Heat—The Hidden Villain of Power Electronics
10/28/2025 | John Watson -- Column: Elementary, Mr. WatsonIf electricity were a group of college students, then power electronics and the PCB designers who dive into it would insist on driving the car on every road trip because they know the car inside and out—they’re the students with jumper cables in the trunk, a tire pressure gauge in the glove box, and snacks stashed under the seat. While the others argue over playlists and directions, power electronics is busy ensuring the alternator doesn’t fry, the headlights don’t dim, and everyone reaches the destination with fuel still in the tank.
