Assembly process of THT or SMT onto PCBs for spacecraft applications follow well-established design requirements based on specifications prepared by ECSS (ECSS-Q-ST-70-08C & ECSS-Q-ST-70-38C), NASA and IPC (IPC-6012).
Resistors assembled to a PCB have been submitted to the ECSS verification program. Metallographic analysis allows us to check the status of such devices after performing the environmental tests (Vibration & Thermal Cycling).
