Electronic circuit boards create some of the most complex and highly three dimensional fluid flows in both air and liquid. The combination of open channel (clearance to the next card above the components) and large protrusions (components, e.g., BGAs, PQF

Channel simulations are only as accurate as the models used to develop them. While we have seen much effort placed on printed circuit board (PCB) materials (copper finish, dielectric moisture absorption), other elements within the channel have been largel

First published in the 2012 IPC APEX EXPO technical conference proceedings. Increased pressures to reduce time to market and time to volume have forced many manufacturers of populated printed circuit boards to rely on capacitively coupled, un-powered, vec

Basic performance of PCB (Printed Circuit Board) depends on the performance of substrate material. In order to improve the performance of PCB, you have to increase the performance of PCB substrate material first. This article introduces how to chose PCB substrate material for your custom PCB project from multiple perspectives.

In-circuit test (ICT) has remained one of the most popular and cost-effective test methods for medium and high volume printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) for many years. This is due to its component-level fault diagnosis capability- and its speed.

A thin chip package for off-the-shelf ICs is developed which enables the embedding of these chips into a flexible circuit board. The package consists of a copper fan-out on a polyimide substrate, in which the thinned IC (30um) is embedded. These packages are subsequently integrated in a standard flexible circuit board (FCB). A microcontroller and a proprietary DSP processor are embedded using this technology. The yield of the Ultra-Thin Chip package (UTCP) was measured before embedding in the circuit board, and reaches up to 87% for the packaged microcontrollers (MSP430 family, known-good dies). The yield on the DSP processor was measured to be 62%. After embedding in the FCB, 95% of the functional UTCP-packaged dies are still functional.

Failure due to board flex cracks persists as the dominant failure mode in multi-layer ceramic capacitors (MLCC). (...) This paper is intended to show the impact of temperature cycling, high-temperature life tests, and multiple bend exposures to the MLCC with this flexible termination.

Variability analysis is important in successfully deploying multi-gigabit backplane printed wiring boards (PWBs) with growing numbers of high-speed SerDes links. We discuss the need for large sample sizes to obtain accurate variability estimates of SI me
