Indium to Feature InFORMS Reinforced Solder Preforms at PCIM Europe
May 2, 2018 | Indium CorporationEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Indium Corporation will feature its reinforced solder alloy fabrications, InFORMS, at PCIM Europe, June 5-7, in Nuremberg, Germany.
Indium Corporation is redefining solder with its InFORMS solder preforms. InFORMS are a composite preform consisting of solder with a reinforcing matrix. This combination increases lateral strength and improves bondline co-planarity, providing superior thermal cycling reliability.
InFORMS do more than just bond two surfaces. These solder preforms were designed to address some specific challenges to the power electronics industry.
InFORMS provide engineers with an enhanced material for the development of more reliable and higher performance modules. Due to the planarity improvements and stand-off tolerances, the package design becomes more predictable. In addition, stronger and more dependable joints allow for high power densities.
For more information about InFORMS visit us at booth #7-528.

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.
