With regard to potting, the design of electronic assemblies and components has a significant impact on economical and sustainable production. Key aspects in this respect are pottability, material use, cycle times, quality and the process technology needed. Optimized, bubble-free potting contributes greatly to the function and longevity of products. It is best practice during the design and development phases therefore to follow the potting tips contained in this White Paper.

Fume extraction starts with the capturing of airborne pollutants. In principle, the right collection strategy makes a decisive contribution to the quality of the extraction and filtration technology in air purification systems. Because the degree of collection is the basis for subsequent high-grade filtration, which ultimately results in the efficiency of an extraction system.

Board-level circuits today routinely run at speeds of 100 MHz or more and are composed of dozens of complex interacting VLSI components. To design such circuits in a timely and correct manner it is necessary to pay close attention to circuit timing early in the design cycle. At fast clock speeds, managing component and interconnect propagation delay becomes a key aspect of circuit design. It is imperative that the critical paths on a circuit and the slack available for interconnect delay consumption be identified early, and drive subsequent stages in the design flow.

This paper addresses the assembly and reliability of 0.5 mm pitch leadless Chip Scale Packages (CSP) on .062" immersion Ag plated printed circuit boards (PCB) using Pb-free solder paste. Four different leadless CSP designs were studied and each was evaluated using multiple PCB attachment pad designs.

The vast majority (99%) of the electronics market in North America is composed of products produced for commercial applications. The 1% share of the electronics market driven by Department of Defense (DoD) applications has created a niche market for RF qualified devices. The DoD, with its emphasis on COTS (Commercial Off The Shelf) and "Open" systems, is beginning to become more interested in using commercially oriented RF devices for military applications as a means to leverage the volumes and innovations of the commercial world.

Printer-hosted processes for solder ball placement are now widely used for package technologies ranging from BGAs using ball diameters above 750μm to the latest WL-CSPs demanding 250μm diameter. This broadening spectrum of applications brings more choices in terms of stencil design rules and production methodologies.

Engineers are always striving to make a lighter, faster and stronger PCB. In order to achieve their designs, engineers must turn to alternative materials to enhance their designs. There are many materials that allow for thermal, coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and rigidity. Many times if a material enables an engineer to have CTE they will have to sacrifice thermal. Currently carbon composite laminates are being used in order to achieve an ideal PCB with thermal, CTE and rigidity with almost no weight premiums.

This study investigates the technological properties of quaternary or quinary alloys made by addition Bi or Bi and Sb elements to the SnAgCu solders. The influence of added elements on the electrical and mechanical properties of solder joints created by these solders between PCB and electronic components were evaluated.

Corrosion of solder pots and solder pot components in wave soldering equipment has been reduced with the introduction of corrosion resistant coatings and improved lead free solder alloys. The latest trends in protecting wave solder machine components from liquid metal corrosion by lead free solder alloys will be presented in order to provide guidelines for evaluating existing equipment as well as for purchasing new systems.
