Low Temperature SMT Solder Evaluation

The electronics industry could benefit greatly from using a reliable, manufacturable, reduced temperature, SMT solder material (alloy-composition) which is cost competitive with traditional .. read more

Validated Test Method to Characterize and Quantify Pad Cratering Under Bga Pads on Printed Circuit Boards

The conversion to lead free Ball Grid Array (BGA) packages has raised several new assembly and reliability issues. One reliability concern becoming more prevalent is the increased propensity fo .. read more

Effects of Reflow Profile and Thermal Shock on Intermetallic Compound Thickness for SnPb and SnAgCu Solder Joints

During the solder reflow processes many reactions occur. There is the reduction of oxides on the metal surfaces,metal dissolution,wetting to different surfaces,and intermetallic compound format .. read more

Optimization of Lead-Free Soldering Processes for Volume Manufacturing

In this paper,a comprehensive review is provided on the optimization of soldering processes (including reflow,wave soldering,and rework),for different component types,different PCB sizes and fi .. read more

Life-Cycle Comparison of Energy Use during the Application of Lead-Free Solders

The energy consumed during the reflow assembly of printed wiring board assemblies is expected to be environmentally significant within the solder product life-cycle. Wide differences in the mel .. read more

Selective Soldering Of Flexible Circuits Using Diode Lasers
