Lead-free solder handles hard knocks
29 January 2014, Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services
Indium’s new SACM is a high-reliability solder alloy that offers drop shock performance that it claims is far superior to other SAC alloys, without compromising on thermal cycling, and at a cost below that of typical SAC solder alloys.
The material offers superior drop shock performance versus SAC305 and SAC105, with the added benefit of thermal cycling reliability equivalent to SAC305. This development is especially meaningful for the manufacture of consumer electronics that normally see frequent handling, such as mobile devices.
SACM is doped with manganese and contains less silver than other lead-free alloys. Manganese provides increased strength and the reduced silver content provides a more stable cost structure, especially beneficial for cost-sensitive applications. |
