Microtek Laboratories China's Bob Neves, chairman and CTO, will present a technical seminar entitled “Testing the Reliability of Automotive & Transportation PCBs” at the IPC Southeast Asia High Reliability Conferences. The conferences will be conducted at the Eastin Grand Hotel on the 29th of August in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam and again at the Grand Fourwings Convention Hotel in Bangkok on the 31st of August. The High Reliability Conferences at each location are free of charge.
Microtek is a world leader in testing CCL base materials, PCBs and PCBAs for the automotive supply chain. Microtek’s commitment to automotive and transportation testing includes the use of 10 thermal shock chambers equipped for “Single Hole” or “Daisy Chain” reliability testing along with 28 humidity and HAST chambers, each equipped with 256 channels of CAF/ECM/SIR testing capability up to 2000VDC.
In addition, Microtek has installed a 13-zone, active-cooled, Heller reflow oven at its Changzhou, China facility to accomplish reflow preconditioning for test samples. The new reflow oven is also equipped to use an inert nitrogen environment for reflow that protects the soldermask and surface finish from degradation due to oxidation during reflow exposure.
