WASHINGTON – The Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) today released the following statement from SIA President and CEO John Neuffer. Semiconductors are the sixth-largest U.S. export sector.

“Our companies are investing nearly half-a-trillion dollars to manufacture and develop more semiconductors in the U.S., create high-paying American jobs, secure our supply chains, and win global markets.

“We’re encouraged by President Trump’s goals of restoring U.S. trade leadership, promoting American strength in semiconductors, and reindustrializing our country. We understand tariffs are a tool in the trade policy toolbox. If not approached carefully, tariffs could make it significantly more expensive to develop and produce Made-in-America semiconductors and the many critical technologies they enable, including artificial intelligence.

“We look forward to working with the Trump administration to aggressively advance smart trade and tax policies that enhance U.S. semiconductor leadership, including by pursuing mutually advantageous bilateral and sectoral trade negotiations and tax incentives that create domestic manufacturing jobs, enhance competitiveness, open markets, and achieve our shared goals of making America safer, stronger, and more prosperous.”

NASHVILLE – KYZEN, the global leader in innovative environmentally responsible cleaning chemistries, will exhibit at the International Symposium on Microelectronics (IMAPS) International Conference and Exhibition on Device Packaging scheduled to take place March 3-6 at the Sheraton Grand at Wild Horse Pass in Phoenix, AZ. The KYZEN clean team will be on-site at Booth #705 providing information about multi- process power module cleaner MICRONOX MX2123 during the event.

With the continued rise in demand for high- performance advanced packaging devices, KYZEN remains dedicated to providing cleaning chemistries like MICRONOX MX2123 and process optimization services to meet the array of challenges faced by manufacturers.

MICRONOX MX2123 is a balanced, multi-phase chemistry designed to remove flux residues from a wide range of IGBT module devices that utilize combinations of copper, silver and nickel DBC as substrates. It can also remove fluxes from PCBs. MX2123 can remove slight metal oxidation from base metals for post wire bond and potting processes, leaving exceptional surface conditions after cleaning. It is effective at low temperatures, in low concentrations, and is easily monitored in in-line SIA or Ultrasonic Immersion cleaning systems.

The IMAPS Device Packaging Conference is an annual, international event celebrating its 21 st year serving as a forum for the exchanging of knowledge while providing technical, social and networking opportunities for leading scientists, process engineers, product engineers, manufacturing engineers, academia and business managers in addition to sales and marketing professionals.
