iNEMI Studies New Initiatives at APEX Meetings
December 31, 1969 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
The International Electronics Manufacturing Initiative (iNEMI) worked on several industry challenges at APEX in Las Vegas, preparing for launch in the spring. Among the new projects are: lead-free alloy alternatives, lead-free early failure, boundary scan adoption, and solder paste deposition.
"iNEMI's roadmapping and gap analysis activities help us identify those technology and infrastructure gaps where it makes sense for industry to collaboratively develop common solutions," said Jim McElroy, CEO of iNEMI. "We also want to separate fact from fiction in the emerging technologies, like photovoltaics," added Rober C. Pfahl, Jr., Ph.D., VP of operations, iNEMI, speaking more generally about the consortium's goals.
iNEMI seeks global and comprehensive input on its roadmaps and initiatives to construct instruction and standards that are relevant to the global industry. It will host roadmap development meetings in the U.S. on May 14, Europe on June 18, and Asia on July 28. For full details, see our Events page.
