Shear tests are [in my opinion] senseless. The shear stress you measure depends more on the shear rate and on the point where the force is applied than on the grain structure. When shearing a component, you not only apply shear stress, but also roll

FR-4 will be OK for small products such as cellular phones. Here the temperature gradient across the board may be 3-4C only, and the board temperature can be well controlled. At temperature above around 245C, the discoloration and delamination may be

As a basic guide the minimum spec you should look for is 500g you should achieve a force on most chip parts of 800-1000g. Parts are lost on wave soldering due to no material, poor curing, poor surface adhesion and poor handling. Its not the wave sold

So, yer loosing parts between place and reflow? That would seem to say yer: * Paste has lost tackiness [check the fine SMTnet Archives for a sample test.]. * Really not placing the parts that you think yer placing. * Knocking the parts out of place

There is no standard. This is a relative test. If you wish to do tests of this kind, we suggest to pay attention to the following points: * Shear strength of soft solder depends on the deformation speed applied. The faster the material is deformed t

Your customer is correct. Components should not fall a board during a reasonable drop test. A shear test poorly represents a drop test. A drop test represents a drop test very well. If you want to proceed with shear testing, search the fine SMTne

I would like informnation regarding this high heat withstanding type material for PCB, also any other types that are compatible. We currently use FR4 but have an application that may require most advanced composition.
