Selection of Protective Measures Against Climatic Stress
Abstract
Electronic assemblies are often exposed to climatic stresses during operation. In this case there is the need to choose protective measures. The market offers a high variety of approaches to protect assemblies. So beside technical aspects there are also commercial aspects which influence the decision. The paper discusses decision aspects, which are based on the GfKORR guideline for application of conformal coating.
