Product Overview
AlphaSTAR is an industry-leading tarnish-resistant immersion silver process that eliminates planar microvoids while preventing creep and flaking corrosion. It meets the most complex lead-free assembly, end-use performance, and application requirements set by the world’s leading OEMs, Printed Circuit Board (PCB) assemblers, and fabricators.
The process selectively deposits a consistent, high-performance silver coating, delivering exceptional first-pass yields at the lowest cost of ownership compared to traditional metallic processes. It does not require an anti-tarnish, reducing both equipment footprint and rework costs.
