High-reliability Fabrication
In this month’s issue of PCB007 Magazine, our expert contributors discuss the latest in technologies, trends, complexities and resources regarding high-reliability fabrication. We also detail the tradeoffs involved in maximizing reliability while reducing your costs and introduce you to experts and resources that can help you raise your reliability levels.
High-reliability fabrication presents a number of challenges and tradeoffs for fabricators, along with a myriad of market opportunities. What do we mean by high reliability? How much investment does it take for a traditional board shop to move into the ‘high-rel’ realm? How do you measure reliability failure? And after four years of research, why can’t the North American fab industry figure out the root cause of microvia failures?
