Indium Corporation’s Dr. Ning-Cheng Lee, Vice President of Technology, shared his expertise during two professional development courses at the 19th International Conference on Electronic Packaging Technology (ICEPT 2018) on Aug. 8 in Shanghai, China.
Achieving High Reliability for Lead-Free Solder Joints – Materials Consideration detailed the material considerations required for achieving high-reliability in lead-free solder joints. The goal of this course was to provide participants with the understanding of how various factors contribute to failure modes, and how to select proper solder alloys and surface finishes for achieving high-reliability.
The second course, Power Electronic Packaging Reliability, Materials, Assembly and Simulation, educated participants on the lead-free materials best used to achieve high-reliability solder joints in power electronics at varying temperatures.
Dr Lee is a world-renowned soldering expert, an SMTA Member of Distinction, and IEEE Fellow. He has extensive experience in the development of fluxes, alloys and solder pastes for SMT industries, and extensive experience in the development of high-temperature polymers, encapsulants for microelectronics, underfills, and adhesives. In addition to SMT and semiconductor soldering materials, his research also extends to nano bonding technology and thermal conductive materials.
