Use of Lead-Free Laminate DMA and TMA Data to Develop Stress versus Temperature Relationships for Predicting Plated Hole Reliability

Accelerated testing of plated hole life is necessary for economic reasons due to the long time to failure during field operating conditions. One difficulty in performing accelerated testing on .. read more

Estimating Stencil Life and Ideal Heating Profile of Solder Paste Using Advanced Thermo-Gravimetric Analysis

Thermo-gravimetric Analysis (TGA) measures weight changes in a material as a function of temperature (or time) under a controlled atmosphere. This technique is currently used in the design phas .. read more

Calculated Shear Stress Produced by Silicone and Epoxy Thermal Interface Materials (TIMs) During Thermal Cycling

Choosing a Thermal Interface Material adhesive can have an impact on the reliability of the microelectronic package in harsh thermal environments where thermal cycling temperature ranges are mo .. read more

Thixotropy of Solder Paste Impacts Repeatability and Reproducibility of Rheometric Results

The widespread use of SAC-based (SnAgCu) lead-free solder paste drives the industry toward a smaller process window. This is due to higher reflow temperatures as well as the limited thermal res .. read more
