Damage pre-cursors based health management and prognostication methodology has been presented for electronic systems in harsh environments. The framework has been developed based ...
Spring contacts are an excellent solution for connecting a power module with a printed circuit board (PCB). They can be applied in a wide current range from sensor currents of a f...
Electronic Prognostics (EP) is a technique used in high-reliability and high-availability systems to actively and proactively detect faults, allowing the reduction of system downt...
A systematic methodology is developed in order to clarify the punch through Trench Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (T-IGBT) failure mechanisms which can occur under extreme oper...
