function R(T) of a PBA\n\n\n\nBasics of Physics-of-Failure– The failure mechanism – the stress level – from stress to lifetime– Accelerated testing: Norris-Landzberg et al. and why this is not Physics-of-Failure.– Physics-of-Failure based testing\n\n\n\nDominant interconnection failure mechanisms in electronics– Solder joint failure– PCB via failure– Insulation failure: SIR – creep corrosion – (CAF – Sn-whiskers)\n\n\n\n\nAgenda:  \n\n\n\n12:45 Registration13:15 Welcome by Barco (Dora Deboeure)13:30 Basics in Electronics Reliability (Geert Willems\, imec & cEDM)15:00 Coffee
