PC 3000-the new generation of isotropic conductive adhesives

Summary form only given. The use of conductive adhesives as a completion of soldering is becoming more and more important for mounting electronic components and bare dies on substrates. The new PC 3000, a thermosetting, single-component, solvent-free, silver-filled, isotropic conductive adhesive (ICA) is presented. Application examples for the automotive and telecommunication industries are shown. Advantages like outstanding thermal conductivity are demonstrated and some special aspects with regard to properties and processing are discussed.
