Circuit board Assembly

Objectives

  • Acquire the information required for the controlled implementation of assembly processes for electronic components.
  • Assess the quality of assemblies by studying the various elements involved in the manufacture of the final product: printed circuits, hybrid circuits, components, leaded and lead-free soldering materials, bonding materials and others.
  • Application skills: assembly (PTH, SMT), fluxing, soldering, profiling, packaging, storage, cleaning, etc.
  • Control and failure analysis aspects, as well as essential rules to ensure process control.

INTRODUCTION

  • Industrial environment
  • Reliability risks

 

SOLDERING

  • Terminology and definitions: brazing, soldering, soldered joints, etc.
  • Phase diagram (lead-tin)
  • The lead/tin alloys used
  • Lead-free solder
  • Melting and remelting
  • Phases: morphologies and evolution
  • Intermetallic
  • Wettability
  • Solder creams
