August 30, 2024 | AIM SolderEstimated reading time: 1 minute
AIM Solder, a leading global manufacturer of solder assembly materials for the electronics industry, is pleased to announce its participation in the upcoming SMTA Penang Expo & Tech Forum taking place September 25-26 at AC Hotel Penang in Malaysia. Among other great products, AIM will be highlighting its recently released NC259FPA Ultrafine No Clean Solder Paste.
NC259FPA is a zero-halogen paste engineered for precise print definition with type 6 and smaller alloy powders through stencil apertures less than 150 µm in diameter. Ideal for miniLED, microLED, die attach, micro BGA, and HDI boards, this innovative new product features excellent wetting, high transfer efficiency, high reliability, and high tack force for mass transfer.
In addition, AIM Technical Sales Manager for Southeast Asia, Mhanny Aguillo will be giving a presentation titled High Reliability: The Challenges of Soldering for Extremely Harsh Environments:
High reliability in electronics pertains to the quality of solder joints themselves as well as the electrochemical properties of the flux residue. Key characteristics of reliable solder joints include strength and ductility. These joints are often tested via thermal cycling, drop shock and more. Exact testing requirements are dependent on application. When it comes to flux, industry standards such as IPC and JIS define the electrochemical requirements of flux residues, which is particularly important in no clean processes. This presentation outlines the trends and challenges of high reliability application sin automotive, military & aerospace, and LED sectors. Test data comparing specially formulated high reliability alloys with SAC305 are presented along with a discussion of how key elements of the alloys aid in improved reliability.

The Knowledge Base: My 2025 Industry Wish List
01/14/2025 | Mike Konrad -- Column: The Knowledge BaseMy 2025 wish list for the electronics manufacturing industry is short. In fact, there’s only one item on the list: reliable EV charging stations. I love to drive cars, off-road vehicles, and boats. I also fly airplanes, and I’m an unabashed tech geek. From computers to tech gadgets, count me in. Because electric vehicles combine my fascination for both propulsion and technology, most of my friends and colleagues are surprised to learn that I do not yet have an electric vehicle. So, what’s holding me back? The answer does not lie with the electric vehicle itself, but with the current state of public EV charging stations.
