Choosing the Proper Thermocouple Types for Greatest Accuracy
Most engineers involved with temperature measurement know there are several methods for measuring temperatures of fluids and solids. The oldest and most common method for measuring the temperature of a fluid such as air is the standard mercury-in-glass thermometer. However, this is not acceptable for measuring surface temperatures of solid objects. For surface temperature … [Read more...]
Simulation of Solder Fatigue Effects on Typical BGA Package due to Material and Temperature Variations – Part 2
Abstract The past two decades have seen many approaches to solder fatigue and solder joint life published. This subject has proved difficult as various failure mechanisms are proposed and examined. While these theoretical bases are discussed, it often leaves the end developer in a difficult situation as to how to apply an accurate simulation approach to fatigue failure for a … [Read more...]
