PCB Reliability Evaluation for 0.92 mm Pitch Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) Applications

Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) allow customers the flexibility to configure devices after they have been manufactured. The demand for higher speed requires higher pin counts to provid .. read more

PCB Manufacturability and Reliability Solutions for Fine Pitch PCB Server Boards

Industry demand for high-speed server product performance such as PCI express requires higher pin counts in order to support memory channels which in turn is driving pitch reduction in the p .. read more

The Effect of Functional Pads and Pitch on Via Reliability using Thermal Cycling and Interconnect Stress Testing

European legislation has meant that lead-free solders now dominate mainstream electronics manufacturing. These replacement solders are all high tin alloys with significantly higher melting poin .. read more

Lessons Learned About Laminates during Migration to Lead-Free Soldering

This paper provides a high-level overview of many of the key lessons learned thus far in working with PCB fabricators in qualifying laminate/fabrication processes that will yield fundamental pr .. read more

Via (Plated Through Hole) Integrity with Lead Free Soldering

Bare printed wiring board materials require changes from today’s typical standard dicy cured FR4 materials in order to support lead-free assembly. The High Density Packaging User’s Group has co .. read more

Predicting Plated Through Hole Life at Assembly and in the Field from Thermal Stress Data

Over the past ten years,two new test methods: Interconnect Stress Test [1] and Highly Accelerated Thermal Shock [2] have been developed to perform thermal cycling testing and in particular,to m .. read more

FVSS (Free Via Stacked up Structure)

The miniaturization of mobile electronic devices continues,market trends toward lighter and thinner printed circuit boards (PWB) have been accelerating. At the same time,the demand for increase .. read more

Qualification of Stacked Microvia Boards for Handset Assembly

The trends of increased functionality and reduced size of portable wireless products,such as handsets and PDAs,are demanding increased routing densities for printed circuit boards. The handheld .. read more
