iNEMI’s End-of-Project Webinar: Extended Reliability Assessment for Electronic Components
October 18, 2022 | iNEMIEstimated reading time: 1 minute

Failure of electronic components can be a catastrophic occurrence, or at least a very costly one. When a component fails, it impacts the whole system. The importance of having reliable components becomes even more critical for applications such as medical equipment, automotive, or aerospace and defense.
The main objective of iNEMI’s Extended Reliability Assessment for Electronics Components project is to identify and develop a set of extended reliability assessment methods for electronic components/PCB assemblies used in critical applications and harsh environments. The team is focused on proposing test methodologies or sequences that will accelerate failure detection of faulty components and enable verification cycles to be shortened and improved, saving both time and cost.
Phase 1 of the project identified component-level parts that would be the most valuable to a range of users in the electronics industry. The team considered several possible testing scenarios for these components based on potential use conditions and began identifying ways to conduct testing for extended reliability.
Join iNEMI for this project report-out which will review Phase 1 findings and recommendations as well as identify next steps for Phase 2.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Tin Whisker Mitigation in Aerospace Applications, Part 3
06/25/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileTin whiskers are slender, hair-like metallic growths that can develop on the surface of tin-plated electronic components. Typically measuring a few micrometers in diameter and growing several millimeters in length, they form through an electrochemical process influenced by environmental factors such as temperature variations, mechanical or compressive stress, and the aging of solder alloys.
