Indium Features Gold Alloy Solder Preforms at SPIE Defense + Commercial Sensing Expo
February 16, 2017 | Indium CorporationEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Indium Corporation will feature its precision gold alloy solder preforms at SPIE Defense + Commercial Sensing Expo, which will be held from April 9-13 in Anaheim, California.
Depending on the alloy, gold-based solders have a melting point ranging from 280°C to 1064°C, making it compatible with subsequent reflow processes. In addition, gold-based solders are resistant to corrosion, provide superior thermal fatigue resistance, and exhibit excellent joint strength.
Indium's AuSn preforms have the highest tensile strength of any solder, ensuring high-reliability for joining and sealing. AuSn preforms are designed for high-reliability applications, such as aerospace, defense, and medical.
Semiconductor-grade preforms are designed to meet the challenges faced as RF and power semiconductor devices continue to get smaller, with power density increasing both as a consequence of the shrink and as a result of increased power ratings.
About Indium Corporation
Indium Corporation’s Pb-free and RoHS-compliant preforms are available in a variety of standard and custom-engineered designs. For more information about Indium Corporation’s gold alloy solder preforms, visit booth 121.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Gold Mitigation for Class 2 Electronics
05/07/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileIn electronic assemblies, the integrity of connections between components is paramount for ensuring reliability and performance. Gold embrittlement and dissolution are two critical phenomena that can compromise this integrity. Gold embrittlement occurs when gold diffuses into solder joints or alloys, resulting in mechanical brittleness and an increased susceptibility to cracking. Conversely, gold dissolution involves the melting away of gold into solder or metal matrices, potentially altering the electrical and mechanical properties of the joint.
