Using Physics of Failure to Predict System Level Reliability for Avionic Electronics

Today's analyses of electronics reliability at the system level typically use a "black box approach", with relatively poor understanding of the behaviors and performances of such "black boxes" and how they physically and electrically interact (...) The incorporation of more rigorous and more informative approaches and techniques needs ...

Causes and Costs of No Fault Found Events

A system level test, usually built-in test (BIT), determines that one or more subsystems are faulty. These subsystems sent to the depot or factory repair facility, called units under test (UUTs) often pass that test, an event we call No-Fault-Found (NFF). With more-and more electronics monitored by BIT, it is more likely that an intermittent ...

Reliability Testing For Microvias In Printed Wire Boards

Traditional single level microvia structures are generally considered the most robust type of interconnection within a printed wire board (PWB) substrate. The rapid implementation of HDI technology now commonly requires between 2, 3 or 4 levels of microvias sequentially processed into the product. Recent OEM funded reliability testing has confirmed ...

Microelectronics Reliability: Physics-of-Failure Based Modeling and Lifetime Evaluation

The solid-state electronics industry faces relentless pressure to improve performance, increase functionality, decrease costs, and reduce design and development time. As a result, device feature sizes are now in the nanometer scale range and design life cycles have decreased to fewer than five years. Until recently, semiconductor ...

Physics of Failure (PoF) Based Lifetime Prediction of Power Electronics at the Printed Circuit Board Level

This paper presents the use of physics of failure (PoF) methodology to infer fast and accurate lifetime predictions for power electronics at the printed circuit board (PCB) level in early design stages. It is shown that the ability to accurately model silicon—metal layers, semiconductor packaging, printed circuit boards (PCBs), and assemblies allows...

█  Printed Circuit Board Assembly & PCB Design Forum

DDR5 SMD -- Has anyone encountered soldering DDR5 connectors in the SMD version? In the near future we are going to solder, they say that they warp when soldering, and in order to avoid defects they put a weight on them, hence the question, what to use as a load?

parts moving after placement? -- I'm having a lot of trouble placing a long thin connector (DF40C-100DS from Hirose) all my other parts including 0.3mm pitch parts are placed very well, but this part is much longer than anything else and is often placed with rotation or position errors. I'm using a custom nozzle as I thought it was moving after the nozzle picked it up, but now I'm thinking it could be moving after it's placed. The paste has basically no marks on it, and the parts can be easily moved with even the lightest tap on the board. How should I fix this? Increased placement force? Stickier paste? Placement is with a UIC GX11.
