DFM Rules for Smartphones: An Analysis of Yield on Extremely Dense Assemblies

Handheld portable products such as smartphones are trending toward smaller form factors while simultaneously increasing in functionality to keep up with consumer demands. This is achieved in pa .. read more

Solder Paste Residue Corrosivity Assessment: Bono Test

Lead free soldering with no clean solder pastes represent nowadays the most common process in electronic assembly. A solder paste is usually considered as no-clean if it passes all IPC J-STD-00 .. read more

Broadband Printing: The New SMT Challenge

The Surface Mount Technology (SMT) industry has overcome many challenges in the last 30 years,since its introduction in the 1980’s. One recent challenge has been the lead-free assembly. People .. read more

Effects of Tin Mitigation Processes on Whisker Growth and Solder Joint Reliability for Chip and Small-Outline Package Components

This paper reports the results of an evaluation of tin mitigation processes for components,i.e. converting parts with pure tin (Sn) and other lead-free (Pb-free) finishes to tin-lead (SnPb) fin .. read more
