PCB Temperature Test

Electronic Assemblies (PCB’s) are manufactured from a wide range of materials with various coefficients of thermal expansion. As these assemblies experience temperature changes, the CTE (Coefficient of Thermal Expansion) mismatches place shear strains on different components in the PCB assemblies resulting in cracks in solder joints that can propagate resulting in failure. Thermal Cycling is used in accelerated life testing of joints to determine product reliability.

PCB Reliability Testing

Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) need to go through a series of extensive tests and inspections at each step of the manufacturing process to assure the products meets or exceed specifications.

Reliability decreases exponentially in electronic components due to heat problems. ThermalAir series of thermal testing cycling test systems helps manufacturers design ICs, chips, and PCBs for superior thermal performance.

Electronics Temperature Test Parts/Components

The excessive difference in coefficients of thermal expansion between the components and the printed board cause strain in solder and embedded copper structures to induce a fatigue or failure. Temperature changes, not just component shapes or quality, in electronics assemblies are a critical part of the fatigue prediction. Thermal Cycling Testing is used to to evaluate and predict Fatigue Life of PCBs. This thermal cycle test is repeated ranging from a high temperature testing ranges to a low temperature testing ranges to accurately predict the fatigue life cycle of a Printed Circuit Board through heat stress analysis.

PCB Thermal Shock Test

The thermal shock test serves a crucial role in ensuring the reliability and robustness of PCB circuit board welding. During the engineering development phase, it’s instrumental in uncovering design flaws and process inadequacies, paving the way for optimized product development. As products approach finalization or enter the design appraisal phase, the test becomes vital in assessing their resilience to abrupt temperature changes.

Thermal Cycle Testing of PWBs

Reliability testing of printed wire boards (PWBs) by thermal cycling offers the ability to compare relative survivability through assembly and reliability in the end use environment. Thermal cycle testing of PWBs is generally focused on the failure of the conductive circuits and interconnections. Testing is achieved by thermal cycling a representative coupon with the same constructions and design attributes as the associated PWB.
