Solder Joint Reliability Testing
National Technical Systems (NTS)
Solder joint reliability is defined as the ability of your product’s solder joints to function under given conditions and for a specified period of time without exceeding acceptable failure levels.
Whether you are trying to implement a new solder type or new component types, solder joint reliability testing is essential in providing confidence that your product will perform within its intended operating limits. The results from different test programs can be compared to provide an understanding of design requirements for adequate reliability. This provides you with useful technical information for future designs, saving you time and money.
