Several factors affect the reliability of a product or the reasons for its failures searched. In this post we go through some of these factors. 1. Poor design Sometimes the cause for failure may be due to poor design. The error may have occurred for example due to too...

Thermal cycling testing is a very widely used especially in electronics. It exposes devices and components to fluctuating temperature, which causes fatigue in the components and especially in their interconnections. For example, cracking due to fatigue is one of the...

Humidity testing is one the most commonly used accelerated reliability test methods. This makes sense since high humidity level is a one of the most common reasons to cause failures. Moreover, humidity testing is relatively easy to conduct and equipment for it is...

Soldering is the main technique for forming electrical interconnections. Here is a simple infographic of the main factors related to soldering process!
