SABIC’s new LNP™ KONDUIT™ compound delivers exceptional thermal conductivity & flow in complex DDR memory IC test sockets
SABIC, a global leader in the chemical industry, today introduced LNP™ KONDUIT™ 8TF36E compound, a new specialty material that helps address the stringent demands of burn-in test sockets (BiTS) used to stress-test double-data-rate (DDR) memory integrated circuits (ICs). As the number of pins and the testing temperature for DDR ICs increase and their dimensions shrink, materials used in BiTS components must deliver enhanced properties. SABIC’s new compound provides very high flow to help enable complex, miniaturized BiTS designs; excellent dimensional stability and high temperature resistance to enhance BiTS functionality during testing; and high thermal conductivity to rapidly dissipate heat afterwards.
