Surface Evolver , Aging , Residual Stress , Thermal Cycling , Creep

The variations of residual stress distributions on solder balls under the cyclic thermal load and aging processes are investigated in this thesis. The solidification phenomena for different shapes and materials of the solder balls during the reflow process are predicted by using the Surface Evolver program. The distribution of residual stress in the solder ball is calculated by employing the MARC finite element package. The temperature dependent material properties of the solders, i.e. 63Sn/37Pb...

AbstractMachiavelli creates his model of an ideal prince in his famous book The Prince. He abandons the Christian criteria set for a prince, such as generosity, morality, and piety. Instead, he claims that it is harmful for a prince to follow all the moral principles, and it is necessary for a prince to be well versed in the use of evil and treachery. Machiavelli¡¦s contemporaries, including the Tudors, are shocked by his vision of a prince unfettered by the constraints of trad...

System-on-a-Chip , Embedded In-Circuit Emulator

An in-circuit emulator (ICE) is an important tool for the development of microprocessor-based systems. External ICE boxes are complex and expensive piece of hardware so their use is usually limited to debugging phases of the microprocessor-based systems that involve hardware/software integration or investigation of real time I/O or bus events. On the other hand, a ROM monitor is inexpensive, but provides less observablity for the microprocessor¡¦s operations. In either case, th...
