source: ASRC Federal Space and Defense (NASA,USA), EPCI e-Symposium Abstract: Insertion of COTS components into hi-rel systems require extensive environmental testing of the parts that often results in parametric failures. Based on experience with commercial and hi-rel PME and BME ceramic capacitors and polymer and MnO2 cathode tantalum capacitors, this presentation discusses two major reasons for parametric failures. One is due to the marketing...
source: ESA, EPCI e-Symposium Abstract: The presented presentation slides are prepared based on ESA long term experience with passive components use in space environment. Several failures and investigations during the last years linked with the use of commercial components or commercial manufacturing process are reported. We will share some lesson learn for the use of commercial product/process in space application. Title: Lessons learnt at...
source: Valeo Autoklimatizace k.s., EPCI e-Symposium Abstract: Automotive industry has been facing exciting and important challenges in recent years. It is not only the move from classic combustion engine cars to hybrid or fully electrical vehicles. Much more is going on in the field of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) helping to make roads and surrounding areas a safer place for everyone. The irreplaceable...
source: Serma Technologies, EPCI e-Symposium Abstract: SERMA TECHNOLOGIES is presenting failure statistics of all return parts analyzed during the last 5 years. For each family of passives components ( ceramic, tantalum, film capacitors and resistors) , percentage of defect will be given. The origin of defect (suppliers, board assembly process, or environment ) will also be discussed. Specific technics was also developed to address...
source: AVX Corporation, EPCI e-Symposium Abstract: In common with commercial applications, demand for established reliability solutions with higher bulk capacitance and lower ESR continues, along with the need for increasing the volumetric efficiency and reducing real estate / payload. Interestingly, voltage trends remain fairly stable within avionics and aerospace as common bus voltages from 5v to 28v remain unchanged; however, there remain a number...
