Indium to Feature Innovative Solutions from Portfolio of Thermal Management Products at SEMI-THERM

Estimated reading time: 1 minute

Indium Corporation® will feature an array of innovative thermal management solutions at SEMI-THERM, March 13?17, in San Jose, CA. 

Indium Corporation’s new line of innovative liquid metal pastes (LMP) has enabled a true liquid metal-based TIM solution capable of handling heat dissipation issues while maintaining long-term reliability. With higher viscosity than standard liquid metal, Indium Corporation’s next generation LMPs offer:

• Rth as low as 0.03K/W
• Predictable spreading characteristics
• Lower risk of pump-out
• Lower total costs

Indium Corporation’s Heat-Spring® solutions, ideal for TIM2 applications, are a compressible interface between a heat source and a heat-sink. These indium-containing TIMs offer superior thermal conductivity over non-metals—with pure indium metal delivering 86W/mK. They are available as pure indium, pure indium clad with aluminum to prevent sticking to the device under test (DUT), indium-silver alloys, and indium-tin alloys.

Featured Heat-Spring® products at SEMI-THERM:

• Are patterned to optimize contact with non-planar surfaces
• Provide uniform contact between the burn-in head and the DUT
• Provide more uniform thermal conductivity
• Clean with no residue
• Are recyclable and reclaimable

Indium Corporation’s GalliTHERM™ portfolio of gallium-based liquid metal solutions draws on the company's more than 60 years of experience in manufacturing gallium-based liquid metals. These liquid metal TIMs are designed for both TIM1 and TIM2 applications. Liquid metal TIMs offer:

• High thermal conductivity for end-product longevity and reliability
• Low interfacial resistance against most surfaces, ensuring rapid heat dissipation
• Extraordinary wetting ability to both metallic and non-metallic surfaces
