Atmospheric Plasma Surface Engineering of Printed Circuit Boards: A Novel Method to Improve the Adhesion of Conformal Coatings

Conformal coatings are essential components for the microelectronics packaging industry. These functional coatings aim to protect electronic circuits from environmental factors such as heat .. read more

IPC-CC-830B Versus the 'Real World': Part 2

Conformal Coatings are often used to increase the reliability of electronic assemblies operating in harsh or corrosive environments where the product would otherwise fail prematurely. Conformal .. read more

Ultrathin Fluoropolymer Coatings to Mitigate Damage of Printed Circuit Boards Due to Environmental Exposure

As consumers become more reliant on their handheld electronic devices and take them into new environments,devices are increasingly exposed to situations that can cause failure. In response,the .. read more

Consideration for Selection and Implementation of Low VOC Conformal Coating into High Reliability Electronics Manufacturing Operation

The purpose of this presentation is to provide considerations for selection of conformal coatings into electronics assembly operations. The types of testing required for selection and use of co .. read more

Effect of Silicone Conformal Coating on Surface Insulation Resistance (SIR) For Printed Circuit Board Assemblies.

Conformal coatings are considered a method of providing corrosion protection to electrical assemblies used in high-humidity or harsh environments. They are applied to PCBs for various reasons: .. read more

Conformal Coatings for Tin Whisker Risk Management

The objective of this study is to evaluate conformal coatings for mitigation of tin whisker growth. The conformal coatings chosen for the experiment are acrylic,polyurethane and parylene. The c .. read more

Performance of Photoimageable Solder Masks – A Study on Thermal Stress

The continuous temperature resistance of electrically insulating materials can be judged by examining the effect of thermal stress loads on the electrical properties,such as moisture and insula .. read more

Whisker Penetration into Conformal Coating

Tin whiskers are needle-like crystals of tin growing from pure tin or high-tin alloy surfaces,which may grow long enough to cause electrical shorts. Conformal coatings provide some protection a .. read more
