Trends in Electronic Packages
Longer Lifetime
Automotive electronics; Systems, difficult to access
Miniaturization
Restricted installation volume
Cost reduction (reduction of die and substrate size)
Increase of power density and operation temperature
Accelerated aging of die contact materials
Reduction of manufacturing Costs
Minimize process costs (no cleaning after processing)
Lower material costs (by increase of power density)
Lead Free Electronics

PA Chips generating a lot of heat but getting
less efficient if they are getting hotter
This drives the need for higher thermal
conductivity die attach materials
mAgic sinter paste provides outstanding
thermal conductivity between die and
substrate
Improved thermal conductivity of die attach
material enable
Lower chip temperatures
Less power loss and longer battery life
Improved performance

Summary
Based on its unique properties and processing silver
sintering allows a usage in different applications
Due to its material performance, thermally, electrically and
mechanically it works as enabler and booster if the system
is matched
Compared to solders a makeable increase in life time for of
interconnects in power electronics modules will be achieved
based on its mechanical stability and thermal conductivity
For discrete power electronics it can be used as lead free
die attach solution, easy in processing and providing the
required thermal and mechanical stability for 2nd level
interconnect
In high power density application like power amplifier it
allows a further increase of power density or increase in life
time due to its exceptional thermal conductivity
