Benefits of Low-Temp Soldering: I-007eBook Now Available
July 31, 2018 | I-Connect007Estimated reading time: 1 minute

Tired of solder joint failures? Get your head off the pillow! Learn about opportunities and solutions provided by low-temperature soldering in I-Connect007’s newest micro eBook: The Printed Circuit Assembler’s Guide to… Low-Temperature Soldering.
The Printed Circuit Assembler’s Guide to… is an ongoing book series specifically dedicated to educating PCB assemblers and serves as a go-to resource for essential assembly topics.
Written by Morgana Ribas and other expert authors from Alpha Assembly Solutions, this book provides an introduction to the evolution of modern low-temperature soldering, illustrates the importance of chemistry when developing low-temperature solders, and discusses advanced and emerging applications where lower melting point alloys can provide unique assembly solutions.
“Due to the recent burgeoning in the use of low-temperature solders within the electronics assembly industry, much has been written about bismuth- and tin-based solders and solder pastes. This book does a good job of distilling out the chaff and focusing on the most relevant, valuable information available,” says Raiyo Aspandiar, senior engineer at Intel Corporation.
Readers will learn the benefits low-temperature alloys have to offer, such as reducing costs, creating more reliable solder joints, and overcoming design limitations with traditional alloys.
Download your free copy today! You can also view other titles in our full library.
We hope you enjoy The Printed Circuit Assembler’s Guide to… Low-Temperature Soldering.

Driving Innovation: Direct Imaging vs. Conventional Exposure
07/01/2025 | Simon Khesin -- Column: Driving InnovationMy first camera used Kodak film. I even experimented with developing photos in the bathroom, though I usually dropped the film off at a Kodak center and received the prints two weeks later, only to discover that some images were out of focus or poorly framed. Today, every smartphone contains a high-quality camera capable of producing stunning images instantly.
