VASS, NC – For a limited time, PACE Worldwide is offering a $100 off list sale price on all of their ADS200 soldering stations. The discount will be available through PACE’s network of distributors or directly through their website.

The ADS200 features the TD-200 AccuDrive® Tip-Heater Cartridge Iron, with its sleek, ergonomic, aircraft-grade aluminum handle designed to stay cool and comfortable during continuous production soldering. Blue Series Tip-Heater Cartridges integrate a high-accuracy sensor with a robust heater, delivering up to 120 Watts of power that allow you to solder the highest mass D-PAK components to the most delicate 01005 chips safely and rapidly--even on the heaviest PCBs. Unlike Curie point systems, select any temperature (from 380°F/193°C to 850°F/454°C) without changing the cartridge – one tip, any temperature! The quick-change cartridges can be swapped out while hot, and achieve set temperatures instantly. Yet the tip cartridges are much more economical than most other cartridge style or Curie point tips. PACE’s AccuDrive temperature control technology delivers unsurpassed thermal performance and highly accurate temperatures, without the need for calibration. Its advanced electronics provide instantaneous load sensing and on-demand power to quickly reflow solder joints at the lowest, safest temperature required, regardless of the mass of the application, which also greatly extends tip life. Intended for extreme multi-shift production use, the ADS200 features a rugged, all-metal design, including housing, soldering iron and tool stand. The system is intuitive and easy to operate – just power it on, set the temperature with arrow keys and start soldering. No training required.

CLINTON, NY – Indium Corporation’s Evan Griffith, Product Specialist for Semiconductor and Advanced Assembly Materials, will host two webinars about the increasing complexity of LED device assembly as part of the company’s free InSIDER Series. The webinars, focusing on the same topic area, will premier on July 18 at 9 a.m. ET and July 19 at 9 p.m. ET.

Particularly in the advanced assembly space, there has been renewed interested in smaller LED technologies that support advanced display devices and other lighting technologies. This webinar will focus on two of those technologies, MiniLED and MicroLED. Griffith will first explain the differences in application between these two technologies and how the market has necessitated the development of each. He will then analyze the typical assembly process flow of building both MiniLED and MicroLED devices and the differences between those assemblies and that of standard SMT assembly. Lastly, Griffith will examine the design of soldering material for MiniLED and MicroLED assembly and relevant material properties and test methods for ensuring high-yield devices.

“As LED devices become more complex, so does the soldering assembly of the materials involved,” said Griffith. “From infotainment screens in modern vehicles to large video walls at sports stadiums and even modern televsions, advanced LED technology is responsible for the advancements enabling these devices. From a solder manufacturer’s perspective, the assembly of these advanced LED technologies is paramount to understand in order to meet the needs of this advancing market.”

HAUPPAUGE, NY – Orbit International Corp. (OTC Expert Market:ORBT), an electronics manufacturer and software solution provider, today announced that its Simulator Product Solutions LLC subsidiary (“SPS”), a part of Orbit’s Electronics Group (“OEG”), received a new contract valued in excess of $2,500,000. Deliveries under the contract are expected to commence in the fourth quarter of 2023 and are expected to continue through the third quarter of 2024.

Mitchell Binder, President and CEO of Orbit International commented, “We are pleased to report this significant contract award by our SPS subsidiary which is for simulator components used on a major military aircraft program. This comes on the heels of $925,000 in reported bookings for SPS for the month of April 2023, and is the largest single order ever received by SPS or its predecessor company. We are encouraged by several other business opportunities that SPS is working on and are hopeful some of these potential awards will be received by quarter end.”

COPENHAGEN – Napatech™ (OSLO: NAPA.OL), the leading provider of programmable Smart Network Interface Cards (SmartNICs) and Infrastructure Processing Units (IPU) used in cloud, enterprise and telecom datacenter networks, today announced a collaboration with Jabil, Inc. on a server platform for high-bandwidth, low-latency, financial technology (Fintech) applications.

Enterprises that provide electronic banking and trading services rely on their data center server platforms to transmit, receive and store financial transactions at high data rates, with low networking latency and zero data packet loss. Jabil's new J322-S server addresses these challenges through pre-validated network adapter configurations that include the Napatech NT100 and NT200 SmartNICs, which perform low-latency lossless networking at 100Gbps and 200Gbps respectively. The SmartNICs also enable complete replay of transaction data with nanosecond precision, for use in analytics, testing and simulation.

"Jabil's J322-S 2U rackmount server based on the high-performance 4th Gen Intel® Xeon Dual Socket processor is optimized to meet the demanding needs of our Fintech customers," said Ed Bailey, vice president of technology, Jabil Cloud and Enterprise Communications. "Storage needs are addressed by offering NVMe, SAS and SATA drives for hot- pluggable hybrid storage, while the available programmable Napatech SmartNICs deliver the high-performance, low-latency networking features that are required for Fintech applications. We are pleased to team with Napatech on these platforms and look forward to future collaboration as our customers' needs and opportunities evolve."

"As Fintech applications become higher-performance and more complex, standard Network Interface Cards (NICs) are unable to handle the increased line speed while delivering data without packet loss," said Charlie Ashton, senior director of business development at Napatech. "Napatech's programmable SmartNICs, however, support line speeds up to 200Gbps with zero packet loss under all conditions, while also including large on-board buffers that absorb microbursts and ensure peak network performance at all times. We are delighted that Jabil has selected our SmartNICs to ensure the performance, reliability and data integrity delivered by their J322-S server in Fintech use cases."

"The increasing sophistication of financial trading algorithms drives the need for more advanced networking subsystems within the data centers operated by Fintech companies," said Bob Laliberte, principal analyst at Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG). "Programmable SmartNICs represent the optimum solution for delivering both the requisite data networking performance and the flexibility to perform software upgrades after deployment. The collaboration between Jabil and Napatech ensures organizations can deploy a high performance platform suitable for a wide range of demanding Fintech applications."

The Jabil J322-S server is available now in a configuration with either the Napatech NT100 or NT200 SmartNIC.
