The Gap Dilemma in the Technical Cleanliness of Electronic Assemblies – Why Foreign Object Debris on Electronic Assemblies is not...

Technical Cleanliness, i.e., the quantification, control and mitigation of deleterious effects of foreign object debris (FOD), is a common challenge in engineering. In the context of electro .. read more

Prediction of Whisker Growth Positions at Press-Fit Connections Using Finite Element Analysis

Compliant press-fit connections using a pure tin finish are prone to spontaneous long whisker growth after press-in, which may result in malfunction of the electronic circuits. The origin of .. read more

FEA Study of Solder Hole Fill Impact on the Reliability of PTH Solder Joints

This paper is focused on the impact of solder hole fill on the reliability of the plated-through-hole (PTH) solder joints with different board thicknesses. Finite element analysis (FEA) is empl .. read more

BGA Solder Joint Mechanical Risk Assessment during System Level Shock Test

The pressure to reduce overall form-factor size in the high volume chassis desktop market is driving the need to integrate components at the system level. Adding to the challenge of size reduct .. read more
