LEARNING OUTCOMES
The purpose of the course is to provide a comprehensive understanding about the factors that affect the reliability of novel electronic products. The emphasis is placed on the fundamentals of electronics integration and packaging, accelerated reliability testing, life-time prediction methods and physics of failure analysis and mechanisms. After the course, the student should have a general understanding on the most common materials, structures, manufacturing methods and failure mechanisms of typical electronic components, packages, modules and devices.
