Abstract: A method of inhibiting a formation of palladium-nickel-tin (Pd—Ni—Sn) intermetallic in solder joints is described as follows. Firstly, a solder alloy is provided. Then, at least one of a trace of copper and a trace of zinc is doped into the solder alloy. Afterward, the solder alloy is disposed on the Pd-bearing surface finish, such as a Pd/Ni bi-layer or a Au/Pd/Ni tri-layer.

During the soldering, the Cu and Zn will incorporate into the soldering reaction, forming copper-palladium-nickel-tin intermetallic and zinc-palladium-nickel-tin intermetallic, replacing the Pd—Ni—Sn respectively. Consequently, the addition of Cu and/or Zn into solders will inhibit the undesirable Pd—Ni—Sn intermetallic to form in the solder joints.

Abstract: A method for monitoring the depth of anesthesia is provided for detecting the conscious state of one being anesthetized in the recovery phase or induction phase of anesthesia course in order to facilitate an anesthesiologist to predict exactly the dosage of an anesthetic required. At first, an original electroencephalogram (EEG) is taken from one being tested. Then, the original electroencephalogram is analyzed by approximate entropy to obtain its approximate entropy value. Next, the approximate entropy value is multiplied by 1000/17, and the corrected value is assumed as the predicted value of depth of anesthesia. The predicted value of depth of anesthesia represents degree of the conscious state or the depth of anesthesia for the one being tested. The higher the predicted depth of anesthesia value, the more conscious the one being tested is, i.e., in a shallower depth of anesthesia. On the other hand, the lower the predicted depth of anesthesia value, the less conscious the one being tested is, i.e.
