AIM to Highlight REL61 at the SMTA Cd Juarez Technical Forum & Expo
March 16, 2017 | AIM SolderEstimated reading time: 1 minute
AIM Solder will highlight their revolutionary REL61 lead-free solder alloy, along with their full line of solder assembly materials, at the SMTA Cd Juarez Technical Forum & Expo, scheduled to take place on April 6, 2017 at the Hotel Real Inn in Cd Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico.
REL61 addresses the most challenging issues with today’s common lead-free alloys, specifically voiding, cost, durability and tin whiskers. Combined with AIM M8 Solder Paste, REL61 has reduced voiding on BTC packages by over 45%, increasing both thermal performance and solder joint integrity. REL61 offers a low cost alternative to SAC alloys, with reliability and performance characteristics superior to SAC305 and low/no-silver solder alloys. Extensive testing indicates that REL61 can reduce tin whisker formation as well as outperform SAC alloys in thermal shock, vibration and drop shock resistance.
AIM will also highlight its full line of advanced solder materials, including solder paste, liquid flux and solder alloys, including its newly developed REL22 solder alloy for extremely harsh environments. To discover all of AIM’s products and services, visit the company at the SMTA Cd Juarez Technical Forum & Expo for more information.

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.
