The New England Lead-free Electronics Consortium is a collaborative effort of New England companies spanning the electronics supply chain,sponsored by the Toxics Use Reduction Institute,the U.S .. read more

End-of-Life Management of Electronics Products Through Functional Signature Analysis

This paper presents a functional signature analysis method for the end-of-life management of products,particularly for electrical-electronics and electromechanical applications. Due to the fast .. read more

Lead Free Conversion Analysis for Multiple PWB/Component Materials and Finishes using Quality and Reliability Testing

The world-wide movement to phase out lead from electronic products presents many challenges for companies throughout the electronics supply chain. The University of Massachusetts Lowell has bro .. read more

Solder Paste Wetting and Solder-Balling Evaluation: A Quantitative Statistical Approach Using DOE

The ability of a solder paste particles to coalesce and wet the Printed Wiring Board (PWB) and component lead is key to proper solder joint formation. Robust solder paste performance is needed .. read more

A Self Assessment Software Tool for SMT Processes and Productivity Optimization

Numerous studies and anecdotal data suggest that most SMT assembly lines are not optimized. This situation is true whether one looks at the individual processes,such as stencil printing or plac .. read more
