Indium Corporation to Host Power Electronics Webinar
January 18, 2022 | Indium CorporationEstimated reading time: 1 minute
The next offering in Indium Corporation’s acclaimed InSIDER Series of webinars will be a discussion on the challenges with high-reliability power electronics assemblies and an overview of some of Indium Corporation's innovative materials solutions. Joe Hertline, product manager – ESM/Power Electronics, will host the webinar on Tuesday, Feb. 8 at 8 a.m. San Francisco/11 a.m. New York/4 p.m. London/5 p.m. Germany.
The InSIDER Series—Indium Corporation’s free webinar program inaugurated in April 2020 – has included more than 30 topics presented to thousands of industry professionals via its live sessions and recordings archive.
As power devices evolve to handle increased power density, higher junction temperatures, and smaller packaging, the enhanced requirements for high-reliability power electronics have posed many challenges to the packaging and assembly processes. In The Challenges of High-Reliability Power Electronics Assembly and the Emerging Materials Solutions, Hertline will analyze the major challenges within substrate- and die-attach applications, as well as provide an overview of the innovative materials solutions that can help achieve high power density and promote better heat dissipation, resulting in highly reliable power devices.
Hertline is responsible for driving the growth of the power electronics product line through development and implementation of marketing strategies supported by customer experience, emerging technologies, and industry feedback. Hertline also collaborates with Indium Corporation’s sales, technical support, R&D, production, and quality teams to serve existing customers and grow new business in his designated market. Prior to joining Indium Corporation in the spring of 2020, Hertline spent more than 10 years as an engineer and product manager in the electronics industry.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Revamp Your Components with BGA Reballing
10/14/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileBall grid array (BGA) components evolved from pin grid array (PGA) devices, carrying over many of the same electrical benefits while introducing a more compact and efficient interconnect format. Instead of discrete leads, BGAs rely on solder balls on the underside of the package to connect to the PCB. In some advanced designs, solder balls are on both the PCB and the BGA package. In stacked configurations, such as package-on-package (PoP), these solder balls also interconnect multiple packages, enabling higher functionality in a smaller footprint.
