February 20, 2018 | STI Electronics, Inc.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
STI Electronics Inc. Analytical Lab Manager Marietta Lemieux will present at the Electronics in Harsh Environments Conference, which is scheduled to take place April 24–26, 2018 in Hoofddorp (Amsterdam), Netherlands. The conference will focus on building reliable electronics used in power electronics and harsh environments.
As the manager of STI's Material/Failure Analysis Lab, Lemieux has an extensive background in residue analysis of electronic assemblies. Lemieux will share her knowledge of residue analysis in her presentation, "Does Extraction time in Ion Chromatography affect the Concentration of Ionic Species?"
"Marietta's knowledge of processing residues for electronic assemblies, and in particular, her experience with Ion Chromatography, allows STI to maintain its leadership position in the industry," said Mark McMeen, Vice President, Manufacturing/Engineering Services.
Lemieux oversees the many facets of STI's Analytical Lab and assists customers with the selection of the appropriate service needed from the Analytical Lab. Using the resources in the Analytical Lab, Lemieux has the capability to identify unwanted damage or stress from both external and internal sources, as well as analyze the best possible and least destructive means of correcting the issues at hand.

Knocking Down the Bone Pile: Revamp Your Components with BGA Reballing
10/14/2025 | Nash Bell -- Column: Knocking Down the Bone PileBall grid array (BGA) components evolved from pin grid array (PGA) devices, carrying over many of the same electrical benefits while introducing a more compact and efficient interconnect format. Instead of discrete leads, BGAs rely on solder balls on the underside of the package to connect to the PCB. In some advanced designs, solder balls are on both the PCB and the BGA package. In stacked configurations, such as package-on-package (PoP), these solder balls also interconnect multiple packages, enabling higher functionality in a smaller footprint.
