When checking and verifying capacitors, inductors, diodes, bipolar transistors, and cables, the gamut of test methods can range from those used to confirm a defective component to identifying the ...

The performance of today’ electronic products relies heavily on the integrity of the tiny connections between microchips and circuits, which can number as many as 2,200. These bonds are tested ...

Wire bonding is widely used in electronic devices, the semiconductor industry, and microelectronics. It enables interconnections between the die and other electronic components in an integrated ...

Materials testing tests the accuracy and load capacity of materials in different environmental conditions. Materials testing is not only performed at research institutes, it also helps companies to ...

Testing for immunity to electrostatic discharge (ESD), from cell phones to computers, is usually done with the IEC 61000-4-2 standard. 1 But IEC61000-4-2 is purely a systems-level test spec, not a ...

This column will introduce sandwich panel test methods in general. Detailed discussions of the individual test methods will be presented in future columns. Sandwich panels will be defined here as ...
