I was wondering if anyone could direct me towards documentation on shear test methods/apparatus to test the bond integrity of a solder ball to its substrate. Thanks.

I recall a couple of papers in the SMTA 'Knowledgebase' that used ball shearing and an element in a study that compared BGA [maybe uBGA] component fabrication methods, er sumpin.

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

How to test the reflow solder joint shear strength? What are the specification to test solder joint shear strength? What are the different methods to test the solder joint shear strength? Vijayashree

Hi, I need support on the method or applicable standard to measure the shear force strength on chip capacitors and resistors. I know the soldered joints strength is related to land desing, solder volume, pcb and component solderability, component

Maybe there's no test and I don't know where or why my customer came with that requirement (I think because in one of the board shipments he got a board were a smd resistor broke, but I think that happened because miss handling), but anyway I need so

Scott: Sounds like fun: � Solder joint strength in pull/shear varies with lead geometry, solder volume, lead metal/metallization, and the test method. � Among things, IPC-TM-650 talks to getting pads off-of boards. For instance: Method 2.4.8 is for

First, any results of pull or shear tests are unscientific at best. [We pop our BGA from boards with, appropriately enough, a beverage can opener.] Second, we have no have problems with your ENIG specification. Third, as with your customer, we'd e

I'm trying to replace the PTH connectors with the SMT connectors in my design, and would like to make sure the SMT connector solder joints are as stong as PTH's. What's the right test to verify that? Is Pull and Shear test is the right choice? Where
