The industry is undergoing a high-value transformation fueled by record solar installations, AI hardware expansion, and automotive electrification. Stakeholders are aggressively prioritizing advanced, ...

Soldering flux is (or at least, should be) one of the ubiquitous features of any electronics bench. It serves the purpose of excluding oxygen from a solder joint as it solidifies, and in most cases ...

Welcome to another in the series by Nick Locke, of Nicab Ltd, who has more than 20 years experience in the electronics manufacturing industry specialising in interconnection cable assembly. This post ...

A group of researchers from the Korea Electronics Technology Institute (KETI) has investigated how commercially available solder fluxes can corrode indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes in heterojunction ...

Syringes are pretty ergonomic, but when manually dispensing flux and solder paste it doesn’t take long before one wants a ...

The white paper concludes that one-size-fits-all cleaning approaches are insufficient for advanced semiconductor packaging. Instead, manufacturers must carefully align defluxing chemistry and process ...

Mini LED chips can measure as small as 50μm × 100μm, with pad spacing as narrow as 5-50μm, demanding extreme precision in ...

The Turbo Torch® Viper line includes five brazing rod alloys, five solders, four high silver alloys, three fluxes, and an aluminum repair kit. The brazing alloys are ideal for joining copper to copper ...

Flux residues have been the bane of reliability of PCB assemblies (PCBAs) from the first time they were used. However, it is necessary to use some sort of compound to reduce the oxides that form on ...
