TopLine Exhibiting in 58th Annual NSREC IEEE Conference
November 17, 2020 | TopLineEstimated reading time: 1 minute
TopLine Corporation will exhibit in the 58th annual IEEE Nuclear and Space Radiation Effects Conference (NSREC), which will have its first Virtual Conference and Exhibition beginning November 29 and accessible through December 30. Live virtual Exhibits will be accessible December 1-8.
Visitors to TopLine’s virtual booth will be able to chat with Martin Hart, CEO, as well as Jared, Steve and Teresa. Visitors may also enter the TopLine Raffle for a $100 Amazon Gift Card and attend TopLine’s December 4, 2:00-2:30pm EST Virtual Webinar titled “Solder Columns - Extending Operating Life For 20 Year Missions.” TopLine specializes in repairing and restoring valuable Column Grid Array (CGA) FPGA components to usable condition by replacing bent or damaged solder columns with fresh solder columns made in the USA. FPGA devices with solder columns are primarily used in space defense applications. TopLine also manufactures Pb80/Sn20 copper wrap solder columns as well as traditional Pb90/Sn10 columns. Columns and attachment tool kits are produced in the USA.
NSREC is the leading conference on radiation effects on integrated circuits and worldwide attendance is expected at 500. TopLine will exhibit Column Grid Arrays at NSREC. The conference will “go live” on-line from November 29 through December 8 with added opportunities for attendees to interact with speakers, exhibitors, and one another including TopLine personnel. The content will continue to be available online until December 30, 2020.

Book Excerpt: The Printed Circuit Assembler’s Guide to... Low-Temperature Soldering, Vol. 2, Chapter 5
12/23/2024 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamChapter 5 introduces the advantages of using low-temperature soldering for through-hole components, including cost efficiency, reliability improvement, and reduced warpage. Also covered: the evaluation of different fluxes and the performance of HRL3 in wave soldering and selective soldering processes.
Overview of Soldering Systems With Vacuum
12/18/2024 | Dr. Paul Wild, Rehm Thermal Systems GmbHWhen soldering electronic assemblies, the focus of the vacuum application is on the removal of volatile substances from the solder joints and the associated reduction of pore formation. Particularly in the thermal management of power electronics components, pores can cause so-called hotspots with higher temperatures due to their poor heat conduction. These hotspots can lead to overheating of the components on the one hand and to thermally induced destruction of the solder structure on the other.
I-Connect007 Editor’s Choice: Five Must-Reads for the Week
12/13/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, I-Connect007This week, Peter Tranitz discusses the upcoming Pan-European Electronics Design Conference, set for Jan. 29-30 in Vienna, Austria. Pete Starkey brings us a review of the most recent EIPC Technical Snapshot webinar, which featured a global PCB maker update by Dr. Hayao Nakahara. Don't miss our interview with Manfred Huschka, who explains how companies can begin their own China Plus One plan. Stan Farnsworth breaks down photonic soldering and discusses its use in soldering materials that are not typically compatible. I also enjoyed Dan Beaulieu’s discussion on the value of consistency, and why just showing up for work is half the battle, especially in an inconsistent, evolving industry like ours.
Advancing Photonic Soldering
12/11/2024 | Nolan Johnson, SMT007 MagazineStan Farnsworth, director of customer satisfaction at PulseForge, discusses the advancements in photonic soldering that highlight its energy efficiency and versatility. Over the past two years, the company has refined its applications for flexible substrates and energy reduction, finding that photonic soldering allows the processing of materials that typically aren’t thermally compatible and offers significant energy savings compared to traditional methods.
