It was not possible for me to go to the International Conference on
Lead-Free Electronic Components and Assemblies in Taiwan, December 2002.
I have been trying to get the proceedings of this conference but up to now
it has been impossible. Does anybody tell me where can I get them?

Best regards

E. González

Asunto: [LF] IPC/JEDEC announce Taipei Conf on LF Comp & Assy

IPC-Association Connecting Electronics Industries and JEDEC-the Solid State
Technology Association are sponsoring an International Conference on
Lead-Free Electronic Components and Assemblies from December 9-12 2002 at
the Grand Hyatt Taipei, Taipei Taiwan, No. 2 Sung Shou Road, Taipei, Taiwan.

Martin Freedman, Molex, and David Bergman, IPC, are the Conference Chairs.

The European Union marches closer to establishing a firm date for lead
elimination in most electronics. Public and political pressure against lead
continues to grow, especially outside the US. Japan, Denmark and the
European Union (EU) are all proposing bans on lead and products containing
lead. International OEMs are becoming more sensitive to the issue and
continue to press their suppliers to develop plans. 

A ban in Europe will have an effect in the global marketplace, which will
force many manufacturers to eliminate lead as effectively as a their own
country ban. Data is now coming in from individual companies' and consortia
efforts. 

Many challenges still exist and the path forward to success is not one of
consensus. Companies need to stay aware of the hot issues remaining in order
to focus efforts that will allow success to be achieved by 2006-2007.

Visit the tabletop exhibits at this year's conference! Many of the
industry's top suppliers will be showcasing their products and services
during the conference breaks, lunches and reception. Admittance to the
exhibits is included in any conference registration. 

If you are interested in exhibiting, contact Nilda Mendez at 847-790-5329 or
by email at: [log in to unmask] for a tabletop exhibit application.

Hotel Information 
Both the workshops and conference will be held at the Grand Hyatt Taipei,
Taipei Taiwan, No. 2 Sung Shou Road, Taipei, Taiwan. Rooms are available at
the hotel for a special IPC/JEDEC room rate of NT$5,330+ single
(approximately $152 US), NT$5,830+ double (approximately $166 US) per night.
For reservations, please contact the hotel at 886-2-2720-1200. Rooms and
rate are subject to availability after November 16, 2002, so please make
your reservations early.

EDUCATION COURSES

T-01 (Full Day Course)
Electronics Manufacturing with Lead-Free, Halogen-Free, and Conductive
Adhesive Materials
John H. Lau, Agilent Technologies, Inc.
December 9, 2002  8:30 am-4:30 pm

This course gives you fundamental principles, engineering data and cutting
edge information on the most important developments and latest research
results to help you apply the lead-free, halogen-free, and
conductive-adhesives technologies. For professionals involved in
high-density interconnections that demand a cost effective design and
high-yield environmentally benign manufacturing processes, this course is a
timely summary of progress in all aspects.

Topics to be Covered
* Chip (wafer) level interconnects with lead-free solder bumps
* Lead-free solder wafer bumping with microball mounting and paste printing
methods
* Lead-Free solder joint reliability of WLCPs
* Chip (wafer) level interconnects with solderless bumps
* Design, materials, process, and reliability of WLCSPs with solderless
interconnects
* Halogen-free molding compounds
* Environmental issues for conventional PCBs and substrates
* Emerging technologies for fabrication environmental friendly PCBs
* Lead-free legislation and consortia programs

-------------------------------------------------
W:01: 
Lead-Free Interconnections-Technology, Selection and Applications
Jennie Hwang, Ph.D., H-Technologies Group, Inc.
December 9, 2002  8:30 am-4:30 pm

Environmental and health concerns have brought about government regulation
restricting lead usage. In addition, the evolution of advanced IC packages
(BGA, CSP, Flip Chip) demand a higher level of performance of solder joints.
Both performance demands and environmental mandates prompt the need for more
knowledge about lead-free solders. This course will provide a clear
understanding of lead-free solders from application perspectives and present
selection criteria for lead-free compositions.

Topics to be Covered 
* General introduction of lead and resources
* Legislation status: US, Japan, Europe
* New compositions vs. known binary Sn-Cu, Sn-Bi, Sn-Ag, Sn-Sb, Sn-Zn, and
Sn-In systems
* Pros and cons of various lead-free alloy systems
* Lead-free surface coatings on PCBs and components
* Lead-free solder balls and solder bumping for BGA, CSP, and flip chip
* Differentiation of solder joint failure modes between Sn/Pb and lead-free
* Manufacturing factors: cost vs. performance
* Selection criteria of various lead-free systems and compositions
* Strengthened characteristics of lead-free alloys
