In the run-up to pv magazine’s quality roundtable at Intersolar Europe, we look at a case where a production error resulted in cold solder joints in 5% of the solar ...

Intermittent problems with electronic modules or circuit boards are often the result of a cold-solder joint. Cold-solder joints are quite common in remote-keyless-entry fobs, electronic ...

Cold soldering defects in a PV module. The problem has now become the most commonly found defect in pre-shipping module inspections. Image: CEA The electric grid is complex. For many generation ...

The quality of the soldering has a tremendous impact on the overall quality of the PCB. Through soldering, different parts of the PCB are connected to other electrical components to make a PCB ...

One of the most significant challenges in the electronics industry is the formation of voids in solder joints. Voiding typically occurs when flux or solvent in the paste becomes trapped in the joint, ...

Detrimental voids have been discovered in Pb-free solder joints, according to a University of Leicester researcher. The researcher, post-graduate Sergey Belyakov, is taking a deep look at Pb-free ...
