    Structural Dynamics of Electronic and Photonic Systems

    Author: Ephraim Suhir, T. X. Yu, David S. Steinberg (Editors)
    Description: This book offers comprehensive and versatile methodologies and recommendations on how to determine dynamic characteristics of typical micro- and opto-electronic structural elements (printed circuit boards, solder joints, heavy devices, etc.) and how to design a viable and reliable structure that would be able to withstand high-level dynamic loading. Particular attention will be given to portable devices and systems designed for operation in harsh environments (such as automotive, aerospace, military, etc.) In-depth discussion from a mechanical engineer's viewpoint will be conducted to the key components’ level as well as the whole device level. Both theoretical (analytical and computer-aided) and experimental methods of analysis will be addressed. The authors will identify how the failure control parameters (e.g. displacement, strain and stress) of the vulnerable components may be affected by the external vibration or shock loading, as well as by the internal parameters of the infrastructure of the device. Guidelines for material selection, effective protection and test methods will be developed for engineering practice.

    Bob Willis Package on Package (PoP) STACK Package Assembly, Inspection & Rework interactive CD-ROM

    Author: Bob Willis
    Description: Available Now!
    The industry's first PoP Package assembly interactive CD-ROM. Package on Package (PoP) applications are growing in popularity for mobile and handheld professional electronics applications and with it placing further demands on assembly engineers. In simple terms POP represents the stacking of components one on top of another either during the original component manufacture or during printed board assembly. As real estate is at a premium for logic and memory, PCB designers say the only way to go is up and up. POP packaging systems may include direct soldering, wire bonding or conductive adhesives for device to device interconnection. PoP is new to many contract and OEM assembly staff but with the demands of paste dipping, reflow warpage, increased placement accuracy/Z height control process introduction can be demanding. The difficulty in multi level ball inspection can be a challenge for x-ray equipment procedures as level one balls can mask level two and three interconnections. Manual inspection can be used but with these applications space is often not available for side viewing.

    Solder Joint Technology Materials, Properties, and Reliability

    Author: King-Ning Tu
    Description: Solder joints are ubiquitous in electronic consumer products. With the European Union’s directive to ban the use of lead-based (Pb) solders in these products, there is an urgent need for research on solder joint behavior under various driving forces in electronic manufacturing, and for development of lead-free solders. For example, spontaneous Sn whisker growth and electromigration induced failure in solder joints are serious issues. These reliability issues are quite complicated due to the combined effect of electrical, mechanical, chemical, and thermal forces on solder joints. To improve solder joint reliability, the science of solder joint behavior under various driving forces must be understood. This book offers a thorough examination of advanced materials reliability issues related to copper-tin reaction and electromigration in solder joints, and presents methods for preventing common reliablity problems.

    Wafer Level 3-D ICs Process Technology

    Author: Chuan Seng Tan, Ronald J. Gutmann, and Rafael L. Reif
    Description: Wafer Level 3-D ICs Process Technology focuses on foundry-based process technology that enables the fabrication of 3-D ICs. The core of the book discusses alternative technology platforms for pre-packaging wafer level 3-D ICs, with an emphasis on wafer-to-wafer stacking. Driven by the need for improved performance, a number of companies, consortia and universities are researching methods to use short, monolithically-fabricated, vertical interconnections to replace the long interconnects found in 2-D ICs. Stacking disparate technologies to provide various combinations of densely-packed functions, such as logic, memory, MEMS, displays, RF, mixed-signal, sensors, and power delivery is potentially possible with 3-D heterogeneous integration, making this technology the "Holy Grail" of system integration.

    SMTA Cost Estimating Guidelines CP-101B with ProfitPro(TM) Software

    Author: Ronald Lasky
    Description: As in all industries profit is the motive for the electronics assembly industry. Therefore, understanding assembly cost should be a prime concern. The stakes are indeed great as approximately 10 to 15% of the $1.5 trillion electronics industry is assembly cost. Surprisingly, there does not appear to be a systematic approach to cost estimating in the industry.

    Featuring ProfitPro(TM), an Excel®-based software application that calculates the cost and profit related to PWB assembly, the SMTA Cost Estimating Guidelines for electronic assembly will review some efforts to remedy this situation. ProfitPro(TM) is user-friendly in that it has "default" values of cost metrics if the user does not know them, and it can calculate "what-if scenarios."

    SMTA/TMAG Testability Guidelines TP-101D (Single-user Electronic PDF)

    Author: SMTA/TMAG Task Forces
    Description: Although test has always been thought of as a necessary evil, in reality it is the single best way to ensure that a product meets the needs of your customer. Throughout the development process test is used to reduce the risk that the design, theory, and final product, reality, are as close to each other as possible. The SMTA Testability Guidelines TP-101D were developed by various Task Forces, each concentrating on its own discipline. The work of the various Task Forces is featured as separate chapters. The Guidelines were intended to assist the reader in dealing with the testability considerations that need to go into the design, development, and test of a product.

    Site licenses are available for multiple users to access the SMTA Testability Guidelines electronically.
