Isothermal aging causes detrimental changes in the microstructure, mechanical response, and failure behavior of lead free solder joints in electronic assemblies. These material changes also degrade the reliability of solder joints in assemblies subjected to aging prior to field use. In the current work, we have extended our previous research on the effects of aging on lead free solder material behavior...
Microelectronic encapsulants exhibit evolving properties that change significantly with environmental exposures such as isothermal aging and thermal cycling. Such aging effects are exacerbated at higher temperatures typical of thermal cycling qualification tests for harsh environment electronic packaging. In this work, the material behavior changes occurring in flip chip underfill encapsulants (silica...
Damage pre-cursors based health management and prognostication methodology has been presented for electronic systems in harsh environments. The framework has been developed based on a development of correlation between damage pre-cursors and underlying degradation mechanisms in lead-free packaging architectures. The proposed methodology eliminates the need for knowledge of prior stress histories and...
