Principles Of Reliable Soldering Techniques

Soldering, Though Being An Age Old Phenomenon, Is Still Perhaps A Difficult Subject To Understand, Due To Its Interdisciplinary Nature. In This Book, Efforts Have Been Made To Describe The Physical Theories Responsible For Making A Good Joint, The Chemical Actions During Its Formation And The Electrical, Thermal And Mechanical Requirements Essential To Ensure Its Reliability. The Four M'S; Material, Machine, Method And Man, Necessary For Designing A Solder Joint Have Been Described In Detail. Further, Process Control, Solder Joint Inspection Criteria, Solder Joint Defect Analysis And Its Repair/Rework Are Also Discussed.Additionally, Brief Introductions To Surface Mount Devices (Smd) And Surface Mount Technology (Smt) Have Been Included A Annexures. The Book Will Be Useful In Industry, And To Design Production, Process Planning And Quality Control Engineers, As Well As In Engineering/Technical Colleges To Students As A Reference Book For The Present And, Hopefully, Future Modified Courses. The Academicians May Find This Book Useful For Redesigning The Present Diploma (Electronics), B.Sc. (Electronics), B.Sc. (Instrumentation), B.E. And M.E. / M.Tech (Electrical, Electronic, Instrumentation) Syllabus.
