Ah, that was the time. Those locomotives chugging down the tracks with a plume of steam and coal dust rising above and dissipating down the track towards the end of the train. "Driving that Train, High on. . ." [http://www.thespoon.com/trainhop/song

The low value will be 0.624uF. You have to factor it from the low tolerance (-10%). So: 0.9 x 0.92 (machine tolerance) x 0.91 x 0.91 x 0.91 (3 decade aging factor for X7R dielectric). We factor hours at the 3rd decade (10,000 hours), but you can

I�m suddenly getting a very high failure rate in a TO99 component (National LM136AH-2.5). After some investigation we found some of these parts are more than 20 years old. What I am hoping for is that someone out there can help me find some standards

0.5um(Ni~6.5um) after reflow(data taken in 48hrs).But after performing temperature cycle test ,the former aging rate(from the shear strength ) seems faster than the latter.Why!?Someone call this the 'precipitation hardness',but what actually is it! A

We don't do this, but if we had to and lacking better advice, for all components I�d dry pack according to J-STD-033, store in a low temperature and humidity controlled environment [maybe using some semicon fab inert storage cabinets], review the eff

I've had problems with this in the past, pretty sure it was due to age. Had a couple of old reels of dummy parts that would not allow for any type of stretching of the cover tape. I have also seen where the cover tape appears to shrink and it pulls

Many times the board may look the same but incases there could be subtle differences that could cause your process to go out of process limit. With boards that look alike you still need to consider: Solder paste (Is key to the reflow profile) compone
