Lead-free Electronics provides guidance on the design and use of
lead-free electronics as well as technical and legislative
perspectives. All the complex challenges confronting the
elec-tronics industry are skillfully addressed:
* Complying with state legislation
* Implementing the transition to lead-free electronics, including
anticipating associated costs and potential supply chain
issues
* Understanding intellectual property issues in lead-free alloys
and their applications, including licensing and infringement
* Implementing cost effective manufacturing and testing
* Reducing risks due to tin whiskers
* Finding lead-free solutions in harsh environments such as in the
automotive and telecommunications industries
* Understanding the capabilities and limitations of conductive
adhesives in lead-free interconnects
* Devising solutions for lead-free, flip-chip interconnects in
high-performance integrated circuit products
Each chapter is written by leading experts in the field and
carefully edited to ensure a consistent approach. Readers will find
all the latest information, including the most recent data on
cyclic thermomechanical deformation properties of lead-free Sn Ag Cu
alloys and a comparison of the properties of standard Sn-Pb versus
lead-free alloys, using the energy partitioning approach.
With legislative and market pressure to eliminate the use of lead
in electronics manufacturing, this timely publication is essential
reading for all engineers and professionals in the electronics
industry.
