Current IssuePartial HDI
Our expert contributors provide a complete, detailed view of partial HDI this month. Most experienced PCB designers can start using this approach right away, but you need to know these tips, tricks and techniques first.
Silicon to Systems: From Soup to Nuts
This month, we asked our expert contributors to weigh in on silicon to systems—what it means to PCB designers and design engineers, EDA companies, and the rest of the PCB supply chain... from soup to nuts.
Cost Drivers
In this month’s issue of Design007 Magazine, our expert contributors explain the impact of cost drivers on PCB designs and the need to consider a design budget. They discuss the myriad design cycle cost adders—hidden and not so hidden—and ways to add value.

Indium Corporation to Present at International Microwave Symposium
April 29, 2022 | Indium CorporationEstimated reading time: 1 minute
One of the most highly demanded applications for 80Au/20Sn is semiconductor laser die-attach due to recent advancements that have made lasers an economical option for a multitude of new products. However, a key challenge with semiconductor lasers is thermal management, as these devices generate a significant amount of heat. Indium Corporation Product Specialist Jenny Gallery will present on how to manage heat with AuSn preforms at the International Microwave Symposium, Denver, Colo., June 19–24.
One method for facilitating thermal transfer from the die to the substrate is to reduce the bondline thickness through the use of thinner 80Au/20Sn preforms. By using a thinner preform in the bondline, the heat is transferred away from the die more quickly, increasing the longevity and potential of the die. In The Effect of Semiconductor Laser Thermal Transfer in Relation to AuSn Preform Thickness, Gallery will examine the impact of AuSn preform thickness on thermal transfer by examining voiding percentages on several 80Au/20Sn preforms ranging from 0.002” to 0.00035” thick.
Gallery is a product specialist for the high-temperature business (gold and braze products) at Indium Corporation. She is responsible for researching and analyzing customer and market data, and she serves as a resource to the company’s current and prospective customers, field sales, and internal departments. She provides product and process support for solder preforms, wire, ribbon, and paste, and she helps to facilitate relationships and new business development. Gallery earned her bachelor’s degree in chemistry at the University of Albany, N.Y., U.S.
