Abstract

A clad solder thermal interface material is described. In one example the material has a a first layer of solder having a melting temperature lower than a temperature of a particular solder reflow furnace, a second layer of solder clad to the first layer of solder, the second layer having a melting temperature higher than the temperature of the solder reflow furnace, and a third layer of solder clad to the second layer of solder opposite the first layer, the third layer having a melting temperature lower than the temperature of the solder reflow furnace.
