Zero Halogen Low Voiding ICT Testable

ALPHA® CVP-390
No-Clean Solder Paste

Zero-halogen, low-voiding, fine-feature solder paste with excellent pin-testability, engineered for maximum assembly yields.

Product Overview

ALPHA CVP-390 is a zero-halogen, lead-free, no-clean solder paste designed specifically for applications requiring high ICT (In-Circuit Test) yields. Its unique flux residue physical properties ensure exceptional contact for test probes, effectively reducing false fail rates during testing.

Featuring SACX0307 lead-free alloy, this product is an ideal drop-in replacement for traditional Sn63 alloys across various soldering processes. It enables stable fine-feature printing down to 180μm circles with 100μm thick stencils, with excellent volume repeatability. ALPHA CVP-390 also achieves IPC-7095 Class III voiding performance, providing superior long-term reliability for solder joints.
