Pad Cratering

Lead-free assembly has introduced many challenges and non-conformances. One of the more troubling non-conformances is “Pad Cratering”. Pad cratering is when the copper pad completely separates .. read more

A Combination Flame Retardant Curing Agent Material For Non-Halogen PCB Laminates

As interest continues in the development of non-halogen flame retardants for printed circuit boards,the requirements for robust thermal stability and lead-free solder compatibility also continu .. read more

A Compliant and Creep Resistant SAC-Al(Ni) Alloy

Addition of Al into SAC alloys reduces the number of hard Ag3Sn and Cu6Sn5 IMC particles,and forms larger,softer non-stoichiometric AlAg and AlCu particles. This results in a significant reduct .. read more

Parylene as a Suppressant for Tin Whiskers Growth on Printed Circuit Boards

With the implementation of RoHS directives,pure tin plating is replacing lead in the tin-alloy used in the printed circuit boards and other worldwide electronics. Although use of tin provides a .. read more

Bending,Forming and Flexing Printed Circuits

In the printed circuit board industry there are generally two main types of circuit boards; there are rigid printed circuit boards and flexible printed circuit boards. There is a tremendous var .. read more

Predicting Plated Through Hole Life at Assembly and in the Field from Thermal Stress Data

Over the past ten years,two new test methods: Interconnect Stress Test [1] and Highly Accelerated Thermal Shock [2] have been developed to perform thermal cycling testing and in particular,to m .. read more
