White Paper: Hipot Testing of Military/Aerospace Interconnect Components

   Introduction Operational performance and safety are paramount concerns when determining the acceptability of a range of interconnection products in military and aerospace applications. Connectors and relays, wires, wire bundled into cables and harnesses, all must be tested against stringent standards. The number and range of these standards is mind-numbing — and this paper makes no attempt to catalog them all. Rather, notable and salient MIL standards and similar aerospace standards will be used to site the key role that high-performance electrical safety testers, ancillary equipment and software play in effecting reliable and cost-effective compliance testing of components as [...]

Using Capacitance Sensors for Non-Conductive Material Measurement

Non-Conductive Material Measurement with Capacitance Sensors Capacitance sensors are non-contact devices that can be used to obtain position, thickness, and dynamic measurements with a high degree of precision, accuracy, and resolution. Capacitive measurement is used with electrically-conductive materials such as metals but can also be used to measure non-conductive materials such as glass, sapphire, and many plastics. Even if a non-conductive material is relatively inexpensive (such as closed cell foam), manufacturers want to avoid errors that can result in significant waste across high volumes. Importantly, capacitance measurement is also used with semi-insulating materials such as gallium arsenide (GaAs) and [...]

Why Demand for SiC Wafers is Soaring and Durable

Silicon carbide (SiC) wafers are in high demand, particularly in high-temperature applications. Silicon carbide (SiC), a semiconductor material made of both silicon and carbon, can withstand extreme temperatures of up to 2700°C. Often referred to as carborundum, SiC’s unique properties also make it a key material in non-electronic applications such as bulletproof vests, extrusion dies, sandpaper, and high-performance disc brakes. In the electronics industry, SiC wafers are crucial for devices operating under high temperatures, high voltages, or both. For example, they are used in electric vehicle (EV) power electronics, 5G communication systems, and LED technology, making SiC a material [...]

Wafer Stress Analysis Using the 300iSA

Wafer Stress Analysis Using MTI Instruments Proforma 300iSA Wafer processing involves several stages that can lead to mechanical changes in the wafer structure. These changes, or stresses, may result in deformities, making the wafer either unusable or only marginally usable. To evaluate these stresses and determine the wafer's quality, wafer stress measurement is essential. The Proforma 300iSA wafer characterization tool offers a powerful solution for wafer stress analysis. It allows for the analysis of a wafer both before and after processing. By comparing these two states, the Proforma 300iSA effectively evaluates the wafer's stress levels and mechanical alterations, providing [...]

Laser Triangulation Sensor Principles

Laser triangulation sensors can be divided into two categories based upon their performance and intended use. High-resolution lasers are typically used in displacement and position monitoring applications where high accuracy, stability and low temperature drift are required. Quite frequently these laser sensors are used in process monitoring and closed-loop feedback control systems. Proximity type laser triangulation sensors are much less expensive and are typically used to detect the presence of a part, or used in counting applications. Laser Triangulation Sensor Applications Position Sensing General positioning is the [...]
