MacDermid Alpha Electronics Solutions to Showcase Latest Integrated Solutions at SMTA Silicon Valley Expo
December 5, 2022 | MacDermid Alpha Electronics SolutionsEstimated reading time: 1 minute
MacDermid Alpha Electronics Solutions, a global leader of integrated solutions for high-performance electronics materials, design, and manufacturing, will highlight its latest polymer and solder paste offerings designed to meet the increasing demands for high-reliability performance and protection at the upcoming SMTA Silicon Valley Expo taking place on December 8 at the Juniper Dome in Sunnyvale, California.
Featured solutions include MacDermid Alpha’s expanding portfolio of Electrolube and HiTech polymer materials engineered to meet the requirements for high reliability and protection for increasingly complex circuit boards. The Electrolube line of encapsulation resins, conformal coatings and thermal interface materials and the ALPHA HiTech line of underfills, adhesives and edgebonds are designed to deliver enhanced protection for assembled chip components for a broad range of applications including automotive, camera module and mobile.
Additionally MacDermid Alpha will promote ALPHA OM-565 HRL3, its latest low-temperature solder paste which enhances electro-chemical performance over and above existing low melt point solders. This paste enables a reduction in peak reflow down to 175°C in order to mitigate common warpage induced defects such as Head-in-Pillow and Non-Wet-Open to improve assembly yields.
Discover more about these and all the MacDermid Alpha product and services that support all steps of device manufacturing within every segment of the electronics supply chain at SMTA Silicon Valley on December 8 and visit MacDermidAlpha.com.

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.
