PCBA Manufacturing for Extreme Environments

Nov. 17, 2021
This eBook will cover the chemical and physical impacts that extreme environments have on electronics and how manufacturing can help mitigate those effects.

Extreme environments for electronics appear in all parts of the world. Each environment exerts multiple stresses on PCBAs that reduce reliability & lifetime. These stresses range from high temperature and pressure in downhole oil drilling to vacuum and particle radiation in orbit. Harsh conditions create design and manufacturing challenges that can only be met with specialized techniques.
