PCB Reliability Test
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.

PCB Thermal Testing
Electronic failures occur due to thermally induced stresses and strains caused by excessive differences in coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE) across materials in PCB’s. As temperature of an electronic systems and component rises, the heat loss increases. Temperatures may be high enough to significantly decrease the life of components, causing devices to fail. Thermal cycling tests are critical to ensure product reliability in PCB’s, electronics, and materials.
TA-5000 Thermal Testing Systems helps engineers design reliable PCB’s and electronic components to withstand today’s increasing environmental stress conditions.

Bring temperature directly to your test location for electronic and non-electronic components from temperature -100C to +225C.
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.Â

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.
The ThermalAir TA-5000 products have a wide range of temperature test capabilities. Bench top -40°C to +80°C applications to temperature cycling -100°C to +300°C environmental test. The TA-5000 is used for temperature testing in engineering product development test labs and production test floors for semiconductor IC’c,  non-electronic components, PWB’s, and other parts and assemblies.
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. Â Â Â
ThermalAir Series of temperature testing systems and environmental test chambers play a critical role in determining product reliability by providing flexible thermal stress testing systems that produces precise a temperature controlled, hot and cold air stream directly to the parts and electronics requiring thermal cycling and environmental stress testing.

The design challenges go well beyond simply delivering processing power and high-speed data transfer. Design engineers must also safely manage heat generated by those processes in the confines of tight vehicle packaging requirements, as well as ambient and cold temperature fluctuations, while adhering to stringent safety and reliability standards of the electronics industry.
Environmental Stress Testing
Environmental stress conditions such as radiation exposure, temperature extremes, vibration, and dirt encountered by the military, on factory floors, and under the hoods of automobiles, these semiconductor devices need to keep working. To assure quality and reliability of electronic devices, semiconductor manufacturers need to simulate harsh environments during the engineering and production test stage. This is why the MPI Thermal TA-5000 Series ThermalAir temperature test products are part of the test.
