Case Studies of Harsh Application Environments
Case Studies of Harsh Application Environments
This paper will present scenarios where environmental factors played a role in inducing various degradation mechanisms to Rockwell products. The paper will attempt to concentrate on the unusual scenarios, or where assumptions were made too early in the analytical process that likely hindered efficient determination of root cause.

Fine Pitch Solder Joint Fuze Electronics Under Mechanical Shock Loads
Fine Pitch Solder Joint Fuze Electronics Under Mechanical Shock Loads
The survivability of 0.4mm pitch and 0.5mm pitch parts at acceleration levels upto 50,000g have been studied for bare test boards.
Analysis Lab

Selective Solder Paste Printing for BGA Components
Selective Solder Paste Printing for BGA Components
Could we print paste only on the pads that have functional requirements? Could we skip printing on 50 or more of the interior pads since they serve no function? The Assembly Brother, Phil Zarrow and Jim Hall, discuss this topic and share their own experiences.
