Recently, there has been an upsurge in efforts dedicated to developing low-cost flexible electronics by exploiting innovative materials and direct printing technologies. This interest is motivated by the need for low-cost mass-production, shapeable, and disposable devices, and the rapid prototyping of electronics and sensors. This review, following a short overview of main printing processes, reports examples of the development of flexible transducers through low-cost inkjet printing technology.

Counterfeit electronic components are finding their way into today’s defense electronics. The problem gets even more complex when procuring DMS (diminishing manufacturing source) parts. This paper will provide a brief introduction to counterfeit prevention and detection standards, particularly as they relate to the Aerospace and Defense sector. An analysis of industry information on the types and nature of counterfeit components will be discussed in order to illustrate those most likely to be counterfeited, followed a specific case at a major defense contractor.

The choice of supplier, first of all, is to choose the products offered by suppliers in the market. Since materials that meet certain product functional requirements are not unique, there are many alternatives. There are many factors to consider when purchasing, such as product quality, supply capacity, price, delivery time, reputation, supplier strength, after-sales service and other factors, but specific to the procurement of shipping tubes, we feel the following four points need special attention:

This paper will discuss the expanded use of boundary-scan testing beyond the typical manufacturing test to capture structural defects on a component/devices in a printed circuit board assembly (PCBA). The following topics will be discussed to demonstrate the capability of boundary-scan test system on how we can extend beyond typical manufacturing test: Boundary-scan as a complete manufacturing test system, Boundary-scan implementation during PCBA design stage, Implementation of boundary-scan beyond typical structural testing

Many customers who have purchased the nitrogen cabinets have been in the mistaken belief that the air pipe can be pull down hard,so that it can cause the board to be damaged due to the hard pulling of the air pipe, which leads to the replacement of the penetrating board. Now, the following pictures are provided. Please note: Nitrogen cabinet is a optiomal choice for the microelectronics,semiconductor for humidity proof and anti-oxidation purpose,Climatest has put much efforts on the R&D of dry cabinets,as you know,our advangtage is to handle temperature and humidity,since early 1990s,our engineers began to test and research dry cabinet and nitrogen cabinet,all of our manufacturing process strictly follow ISO9001 standard,we supply to international customers for 20 years,if you are still looking for a reliable dry cabinet manufacturer to protect your MSD from moisture related damage,come to visit www.climatechambers.com,we are ready!

Applying conformal coatings to electronics has come a long way since the days of manually coating circuit boards. The extreme accuracy and highly repetitive process of automated conformal coatings is moving the electronics industry towards a more defect-free era for conformal coating. It enables new forms of electronics to become better protected, making it possible for electronics to withstand harsher environments than ever before. The following article is meant to aid in clarifying the advantages of specialty coating systems over manual applications for selective conformal coating.

With the push for ever improving performance on semiconductor component I/O interfaces, semiconductor components are being driven into a realm which makes them more sensitive to electrostatic discharge, potentially increasing in sensitivity by 50% every 3-5 years. Today, the majority of modern day semiconductor components are being designed to meet 250Volts of charge device model sensitivity, and that could decrease to 125Volts in the next 3-5 years, and could again decrease to 50Volts-70Volts in the following 3-5 years. The entire electronics industry must prepare for this challenge.

Legislation against the use of lead in electronics has been the driving force behind the use of lead-free solders, surface finishes, and component lead finishes. The major concern in using lead-free solders in the assembly and rework Chip Scale Packages (CSPs) is the relatively high temperatures that the components and the boards experience. Fine-pitch CSPs have very low standoff heights following assembly making inspection and rework of these components more difficult. One other concern pertinent to rework is the temperature of the neighboring components during rework. These issues, coupled with the limitations of rework equipment to handle lead-free reflow temperatures, make the task of reworking lead-free assemblies more challenging.
