Flowers of Sulfur Creep Corrosion Testing of Populated Printed Circuit Boards

Creep corrosion testing of printed circuit boards (PCBs) using a specially designed flowers of sulfur chamber has been developed by an iNEMI technical committee. The iNEMI test is based on a ch .. read more

Testing Printed Circuit Boards for Creep Corrosion in Flowers of Sulfur Chamber

The iNEMI technical subcommittee on creep corrosion is developing a flowers-of-sulfur (FOS) based qualification test for creep corrosion on printed-circuit boards (PCBs). The test setup consist .. read more

Effectiveness of Conformal Coat to Prevent Corrosion of Nickel-palladium-gold-finished Terminals

Nickel-palladium-gold-finished terminals are susceptible to creep corrosion. Excessive creep corrosion can result in device failure due to insulation resistance loss between adjacent terminals. .. read more

Evaluating Corrosion Resistance of Ceramic Resistors: Mixed Flowing Gas versus Flower of Sulfur Tests

Multi-layer organic laminates which make up over 90% of the present types of interconnecting substrates in today’s electronics can develop a loss of insulation resistance between two biased con .. read more

A Plasma Deposited Surface Finish for Printed Circuit Boards

This paper will discuss a new approach to the final finishing for the PCB industry which is based on the use of an ultra-thin fluoropolymer film as a protective coating to preserve solderabilit .. read more

Testing the Long Term Reliability of an Environmentally Friendly PCB Final Finish

The new plasma polymer PCB final finish that eliminates harsh chemicals and waste streams also promises to eliminate creep corrosion,but will it stand the test of time? Before any new produc .. read more

The Path to Robust Electronics - Preventing Corrosion of PCB Assemblies

All things corrode,and the rate of corrosion among electronics devices is accelerating. Electronic devices are being used in more places than ever before. They are finding more uses,they're mor .. read more

Corrosion Resistance of PWB Final Finishes

As the electronic industry is moving to lead-free PWB final finishes and high density circuit boards,the widely used PWB finish,SnPb HASL,has to be replaced with a lead-free and coplanar PWB fi .. read more
