Session 14: System Level Analysis 1
Location: South Ballroom (Worcester's Centrum Centre)
(Please check final room assignments on-site).
Session Description: Papers in this session examine techniques for and characterization of lead and lead-free BGA interconnect, system level ESD sensitivity, failure detection incorporating varying power sequencing and slew rate, and the effect of power plane shapes on inter-planar electric field intensities and associated failure mechanisms.
