PCB architectures have continued their steep trend toward greater complexities and higher component densities. For quality control managers and test technicians, the consequence is significant. Their ability to electrically test these products is compounded with each new generation. Probe access to high density boards loaded with micro BGAs using a conventional in-circuit (bed-of-nails) test system is greatly reduced. The challenges and complexity of creating a comprehensive functional test program have all but assured that functional test will not fill the widening gap. This explains why sales of automated-optical and automated X-ray inspection (AOI and AXI) equipment have dramatically risen...

This document provides high-level PCB design, sensor mounting, and handling guidelines for TDK IMU devices, which incorporate a combination of gyroscopes and accelerometers. Each sensor has specific requirements to ensure the highest performance in a finished product. For a layout assessment of your design, including placement and estimated temperature disturbances, please contact TDK. The TDK IMU devices discussed in this document (ICM-40607x, ICM-40608, ICM-42xxx, ICM-43xxx, and ICM-45xxx products) consist of 3-axis MEMS gyroscopes and 3-axis MEMS accelerometers.

Most of today's printed circuit board base materials are anisotropic and it is not possible to use a simple method to measure thermal conductivity along the different axis, especially when a good accuracy is expected. Few base material suppliers' datasheet show X, Y and Z thermal conductivities. In most cases, a single value is given, moreover determined with a generic methodology, and not necessarily adapted to the reality of glass-reinforced composites with a strong anisotropy.After reminding of the fundamentals in thermal science, this paper gives an overview of the state-of the art in terms of thermal conductivity measurement on PCB base materials, and some typical values. It finally proposes an innovative method called transient fin method, and associated test sample, to perform reliable and consistent in plane thermal conductivity measurement on anisotropic PCB base materials.
