November 11, 2016 | AlphaEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Alpha Assembly Solutions, a leading global supplier of innovative electronic assembly materials, will exhibit at the IDTechEx show, November 16-17 in Santa Clara, California. This show focuses on emerging technologies in the field of printed electronics, graphene and 2D materials and their novel applications.
Alpha Assembly Solutions, a part of MacDermid Performance Solutions group of businesses, will be exhibiting at the MacDermid booth, #G16 featuring product technologies that serve the flexible, formable and printed electronics market in the form of low-temperature solder paste, electronic adhesives (thermal and UV curable), sintered materials, conductive inks and dielectrics and encapsulants.
‟We are introducing a robust portfolio of new products and technologies developed specifically to meet the demanding performance and reliability requirements of flexible and printed electronic circuits,ˮ said Bawa Singh, EVP of technology and corporate development for Alpha. ‟This new offering serves the Printed Electronics market by offering products in two broad segments:
1. Printed Electronics / Circuits on Flexible Polymer Films, where flexible circuits (conductors) and other circuit elements are additively printed on polymer films and
2. Flexible PCBs for assembly of conventional devices and packages such as ICs, Processors, MEMS, Passives etc. on circuited flexible substrates."
Alpha has historically been a forward-thinking organization and is dedicated to providing the highest performing, most reliable products in the marketplace. With one of the largest R&D and manufacturing capabilities in the electronics assembly industry, Alpha can proactively bring customized solutions directly to the customer. In addition to Printed Electronics, Alpha is focused on product development and applications for the Automotive, LED & Photovoltaic market segments.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Revamp Your Components with BGA Reballing
10/14/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileBall grid array (BGA) components evolved from pin grid array (PGA) devices, carrying over many of the same electrical benefits while introducing a more compact and efficient interconnect format. Instead of discrete leads, BGAs rely on solder balls on the underside of the package to connect to the PCB. In some advanced designs, solder balls are on both the PCB and the BGA package. In stacked configurations, such as package-on-package (PoP), these solder balls also interconnect multiple packages, enabling higher functionality in a smaller footprint.
