A potting material for an electronic component, an electronic component, and a process for positioning ferrites in an electronic material are disclosed. The potting material is formed by curing a mixture. The mixture includes an epoxy component, an organic amine hardener, a viscosity-controlling agent, and a silica. The potting material has a coefficient of thermal expansion between an inorganic ferrite coefficient of thermal expansion and an organic substrate coefficient of thermal expansion of the electronic component. The potting material includes a rigidity permitting via drilling by one or more of mechanical drilling and laser burning. |
