Abstract

This paper reports on the results obtained from performing "shake and bake" testing on demonstrator vehicles bonded using Cu-Sn SLID technique. The demonstrator vehicles were exposed concurrently to vibration and thermal loadings similar to those seen in aerospace and downhole applications. This work demonstrates that Cu-Sn SLID bonding process is ideal for packaging sensors and electronics to be used within harsh environments, especially those encountered in the aerospace and oil & gas industries.
