  • Publication number: 20210315107
    Abstract: Board assembly processes are disclosed that may be implemented using multiple different electrically conductive solder types to assemble or attach different electronic components to a printed circuit board (PCB). For example, multiple different electronic components may be attached to a common PCB using a multiple-step assembly process that may be performed at different solder reflow temperatures and/or which may incorporate multiple different solder types having different respective minimum reflow temperatures (i.e., melting point temperatures). The disclosed processes may be implementing using a variety of different forms of solder, such as solder paste form, wire solder form, ingot solder form, etc.

  • Patent number: 9927853
    Abstract: An information handling system includes a central processing unit, a temperature sensor to provide temperature information, a humidity sensor to provide humidity information, and an embedded controller. The embedded controller determines a current dew point temperature based on the temperature information and the humidity information. The embedded controller activates a condensation mitigation procedure if a difference between a current temperature and the current dew point temperature is less than a threshold value stored at a register at the embedded controller. The mitigation procedure is a software program executed by the information handling system.
