Alpha to Present LED Technical Papers at Upcoming 2016FLEX Conference

Estimated reading time: 3 minutes

Alpha Assembly Solutions will participate in the 2016 FLEX Conference & Exhibition taking place February 29 to March 3 in Monterey, California.

Presented by FlexTech Alliance, the event draws various electronics professionals as they discuss the latest breakthroughs and developments in Flexible, Printed and Hybrid Electronics.  Alpha’s Ravi Bhatkal and Nicholas Herrick, will be presenting technical papers in the Interconnect and FHE Technology sessions.

The paper by Ravi Bhatkal, titled “Flexible, Formable Interconnects for 3D Circuits,” focuses on a novel stretchable, formable interconnect technology for LED, sensor and other component integration in 3D and out of plane molded circuits.

The paper by Nicholas Herrick titled “Evaluating the Thermal, Electrical and Optical Characteristics of Mid-power LEDs Assembled with Traditional and High Reliability Solder Alloys on Flexible Circuits”, presents a structured study to understand LED performance at a range of operating currents by measurement of junction temperature, thermal resistance, total luminous flux, color-correlated temperature (CCT), efficacy, and wall plug efficiency, for a given solder alloy.
