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.

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.
