Sonoscan offers mil/aero inspection service for latent defects
-- Test & Measurement World, 4/1/2010 12:00:00 AM
Sonoscan has publicly announced SCE (Sonoscan Critical Evaluation), a confidential service for acoustically inspecting critical electronic components, such as hybrids, capacitors, and plastic-encapsulated microcircuits, used in military and aerospace systems. The service uses acoustic microimaging to nondestructively image hidden latent defects, including delaminations, cracks, and voids. The service helps customers locate, identify, and analyze internal anomalies that can cause electrical failures in service, like die attach voids in a hybrid device or singulation cracks in a capacitor.
SCE handles individual components, hybrid devices, and printed wiring boards. Typically, client engineers handle their own parts and load them into a laboratory C-SAM system in a secure room at the SonoLab in Elk Grove Village, IL. Acoustic imaging is supervised by Sonoscan specialists who will interpret images and also apply alternate imaging techniques to achieve the component reliability required by the client. Sonoscan will also design adapted fixtures to hold parts or modify programs to provide the optimum imaging of critical parts.
