Tin Whiskers Remain A Concern
The elimination of lead in electronic equipment due to governmental regulations (European Union End of Life Vehicle Directive and European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive) has increased the risk of electrical shorting due to the formation of tin whiskers in electronic products. Tin whiskers are hair-like tin structures that grow sporadically on surfaces coated with tin. Whis...
متن کاملTin Whiskers: Attributes And Mitigation
The movement to eliminate lead (Pb), especially active in Japan and the European Union, has resulted in an increasing use of pure tin (Sn) coatings on leads and other external and internal surfaces of capacitors, resistors, and other passive components. This paper discusses the issues of tin whisker growth with respect to passive components. It also presents both a critical analysis of existing...
متن کاملTensile Behavior of Single-Crystal Tin Whiskers
The growth of metallic (predominantly Sn) whiskers from pure metallic platings has been studied for over 50 years. While the phenomenon of Sn whiskering has been studied for decades, very little is known about the mechanical properties of these materials. This can be attributed to the difficulty in handling, gripping, and testing such fine-diameter and high-aspect-ratio whiskers. We report on t...
متن کاملHemadsorption of mumps virus examined by light and electron microscopy.
The hemadsorption (HAD) reaction of chick embryo cells infected with mumps virus was studied by means of light and electron microscopy, with special reference to the plasma membrane of the infected cell. The concomitant observation of membrane-free aggregates of viral nucleocapsid in the cytoplasm and attached red blood cells on the surface of the same cell indicated that only infected cells he...
متن کاملComparison of Aerobic Sporadic Bacilli Structure with Electron Microscopy
I. The existence of differences and similarities in the sur- 4. face features not only of different organisms or groups but also within given species has been demonstrated by a variety of techniques. 2. The different reactions of various organisms to the Gram stain might well be taken as one piece of evidence, the use of the electron microscop and associated preparative techniques (includi...
