Plastic encapsulated Op-amps are very popular due to the high availability and the diverse applications where they are implemented to. Nevertheless, they suffer from different risks being interfacial delamination and die attach anomalies the most critical ones. Scanning Acoustic inspection is the most suitable tool to avoid and...

Crimped connectors are extensively present in EEE systems because of the good performance and easier installation at reduced dimension. Due to the key role played, they are required to have high durability even under harsh operating conditions. In the case of unexpected/early failure, thorough diagnosis and deep understanding of the main failure causes are the starting point to preclude future occurrence and improve the system reliability.

Failure analysis is the process of analysing the component data or the component itself to determine the reason(s) for degraded performance or catastrophic failure of a component either, during component manufacturing and testing, during incoming inspection, or after delivery to the customer, at the final application. Since there is an infinite number of variables in play at any one time, it is important as the first step in any failure analysis to understand how and when the failure occurred.

For satellite applications where failure is not an option, electronic components need to operate constantly on demand, and have to be free of failures during the lifetime of the satellite-which can be for many years. To ensure this requirement is met, the components are put through many hours of stress testing covering all thermal.

Report prepared by Alexander Teverovsky, ASRC Federal Space and Defense. NASA recently released an extensive 70pages report on low voltage MLCC cracking issues published on nepp.nasa.gov. The report in detail describes the manufacturing process of MLCC types, provide comparative analyses of MIL, NASA vs ESA vs JAXA specifications, explains qualification procedures and cracking risk issues including degradation and failure mechanisms. The final section recommends methods for workmanship and failure detection.
