Reliability of New SAC-Bi Solder Alloys in Thermal Cycling with Aging

Drive towards lead-free electronics began in the early 2000s. Solder pastes based on tin (Sn), copper (Cu), and silver (Ag) were the initial replacement for the traditional SnPb solder. With .. read more

Fill The Void V - Mitigation of Voiding for Bottom Terminated Components

Voiding in solder joints has been studied extensively, and the effects of many variables compared and contrasted with respect to voiding performance. Solder paste flux, solder powder size, s .. read more

High Temperature Reliability of Components for Power Computing with SAC305 and Alternative High Reliability Solders with Isothermal Aging at 25...

This experiment considers the reliability of a variety of different electronic components under isothermal aging and subsequent thermal cycling (TC) testing. The components are evaluated on 0.2 .. read more
