Microtronic to Show Sonix ECHO Scanning Acoustic Microscope at SMT Hybrid Packaging
April 18, 2017 | Microtronic GmbHEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Microtronic GmbH today announced plans to show the Sonix ECHO™ scanning acoustic microscope in Stand 221j in Hall 5 at SMT Hybrid Packaging, scheduled to take place May 16-18, 2017 in Nuremburg, Germany. The ECHO enables package inspection of stacked dies, complex flip chips and more traditional plastic packages.
The ECHO VS adds industry-leading features for the clearest imaging of Cu pillars, molded flip chip (MUF), CSP, MCM, stacked die, hybrids, and other advanced package inspection applications. The ECHO Pro adds fully automated handling for 100 percent package inspection in high-volume production environments.
Ernst J. M. Eggelaar, President of Microtronic commented, “We are excited to present the latest developments and features of the Sonix ECHO to our customers. The system offers many new and cutting-edge features.”

Fresh PCB Concepts: Assembly Challenges with Micro Components and Standard Solder Mask Practices
06/26/2025 | Team NCAB -- Column: Fresh PCB ConceptsMicro components have redefined what is possible in PCB design. With package sizes like 01005 and 0201 becoming more common in high-density layouts, designers are now expected to pack more performance into smaller spaces than ever before. While these advancements support miniaturization and functionality, they introduce new assembly challenges, particularly with traditional solder mask and legend application processes.
Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Tin Whisker Mitigation in Aerospace Applications, Part 3
06/25/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileTin whiskers are slender, hair-like metallic growths that can develop on the surface of tin-plated electronic components. Typically measuring a few micrometers in diameter and growing several millimeters in length, they form through an electrochemical process influenced by environmental factors such as temperature variations, mechanical or compressive stress, and the aging of solder alloys.
