The BGA is here to stay! Five years ago the industry was not so sure about the staying power of this revolutionary component design. Today, there is no longer any question. The only question remains: how can every operator conduct proper BGA rework.....

Saunders Technology, Inc. has developed a technique for thermal profiling BGAs for process development that does not require the use of adhesives for thermocouple attachment. ...

I've yet to find anyone who enjoys instrumenting circuit boards with thermocouples. It is traditionally a painstaking, time consuming task, which can easily result in damage to the board when applying or removing the thermocouples. Yet despite these...

In addition to a good price/performance ratio, today�s professional user of a temperature-controlled soldering station requires, above all, a tool that offers the following:... ...

Embedded Ferromagnetic Technology (EFT) provides an automated method for manufacturing high-quality, high-reliability magnetic components. Traditionally, wound toroidal magnetic components (such as frequency mixers, power splitter/combiners.......

The processes used to manufacture magnetic components have changed little over the last several decades. Essentially, these components -- which include isolation transformers, directional couplers, frequency mixers, common mode chokes, baluns, etc. -...

The evolution from military to commercial has moved rapidly in dealing with the classical components in system architecture......

Microprocessors are becoming major consumers of power and dissipaters of heat as they continually reduce in size, while delivering extreme computational performance....

Temperature-management approaches of the past no longer suffice in a world of dual-side boards supporting parts with millions of transistors packed into components having hundreds of pins. ...

Investigate submicron particle removal efficiency for various particle sizes and compositions in both deionized water and SC1 chemistry using different frequencies....
