What Is Droplet Dispensing?
Mention droplet dispensing and you may immediately think of lab-on-a-chip (LoC) devices. Indeed, LoC devices rely on droplet dispensing systems or pipettes to distribute liquids for disease diagnostics. However, the application of droplet dispensing extends beyond life sciences. It finds various applications in consumer electronics (home inkjet printers), optics (lens arrays for fiber optics), life sciences (LoC systems, medical inhalers) as well as electronics manufacturing (dispensing solder droplets for flip chip bonding — attaching semiconductor chips to a substrate by flipping them onto tiny solder bumps) [1]. How does droplet dispensing work? Dispensing droplets manually involves using a syringe or micropipette to release individual droplets, and is common in laboratories for liquid handling. Micropipettes are engineered to deliver highly reproducible volumes and can reduce human variability, but achieving this precision requires proper technique and therefore subject to inter‑individual imprecision [2]. Automated droplet dispensing systems, in contrast, offer superior reliability by accurately jetting (drop-on-demand jetting systems ) or extruding ( direct ink writing systems) single discrete volumes of materials from a nozzle to a precise location. The target volume of each drop can range widely, from picoliters in microelectronics to microliters in lab applications. Achieving consistent volume is crucial in droplet dispensing for accuracy and reproducibility [3]. Dr...

Fine-Pitch Direct Die Attach With Reduced Cost & Higher Throughput
Andrew Stemmermann & John Yundt SunRay Scientific Inc. Wall Township, NJ USA andrew@sunrayscientific.com johny@sunrayscientific.com SunRay Scientific Inc of Wall Township, NJ, USA continues to develop new and innovative technologies for electronic component assembly with their portfolio of novel ZTACH® ACE anisotropic conductive adhesives, printed conductive inks and dielectric and encapsulation materials. Introduction Today’s electronics manufacturers are confronted with a growing need for higher performance, lightweight, cost competitive, printed flexible hybrid electronics. This often requires the bonding of fine pitch components in high density and volumes. Factors for success include the capability of the conductive bonding technology to manage the pitch, bond strength requirements, cost constraints, and manufacturing throughput needs. Most available technologies employed in today’s FHE environment have limitations that can either hamper one or more of these important factors. Traditional component bonding technologies can struggle with the requirements for printed FHE applications. Solder, while very low cost and highly conductive, has limitations due to the required processing temperatures, brittle properties, and low bond strength. As a result, it will always require secondary encapsulation of the bonded component to ensure structural integrity. Silver-filled conductive adhesives (ECA) require patterning, which drastically limit component size and pitch, are heavil...

Heraeus Electronics | Printed Electronics Polymer Thick Film Workshop
Polymer Thick Film (PTF) technology has played a significant role in printed electronics for more than forty years . By combining additive printing methods with advanced material innovation, PTF has enabled a wide range of electronic designs across industries. Although the underlying process is straightforward, effective use of PTF materials requires both technical understanding and practical experience. To support continued learning in this field, Heraeus Electronics is hosting a two‑day, on‑site workshop at the Thick Film Application Center in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania. The workshop is open to participants across various roles and experience levels. Sessions will primarily focus on technical topics , including materials, processing, and application‑specific considerations. The program includes small‑group seminars led by engineering experts, designed to strengthen participants’ understanding of PTF pastes and associated process steps. The workshop emphasizes practical knowledge that can be applied directly to manufacturing and development activities. Workshop components include: Technical Sessions: where we share knowledge, practical insight, and innovative approaches to understanding the extensive world of thick film. Hands-On Demonstrations: that allow you to grasp the intricacies of the process and gain practical insights. In-Lab Activities: guided hands-on exercises using our state-of-the-art equipment.
