Manufacturing processes, handling and printed circuit assembly (PCA) test can put a lot of mechanical stresses on packages, causing failures. As grid array packages get larger, identifying how to set safe levels for these steps becomes more difficult. A new quantitative test methodology within IPC/JEDEC-9707, Spherical Bend Test Method for Characterization of Board Level Interconnects, lets users determine how much strain packages can take before reliability degradation.

Does it sound familiar? Does your company operate expensive and sophisticated electronic equipment, such as an electron microscope, a CNC machine, an industrial PLC, etc.? The failure of any printed circuit board (PCB) leads to a long downtime of both equipment and personnel, while the manufacturer's specialists carry out diagnostics and repairs. That's all about time and money. It seems unlikely that the manufacturer has a spare parts warehouse (SPTA) in every city. Storing the spare parts for all the boards yourself is very expensive and usually impractical. In case the device is under warranty repair costs will be paid by the manufacturer. But what if warranty has expired long ago? Complex expensive equipment can be used for 3, 5 or 10 years, and that is not the limit.
