A method for connecting an electronic component to a circuit board is disclosed. Initially, a substrate and an electronic component having solder located between them are placed under a flashlamp. Multiple light pulses from the flashlamp are applied to the electronic component, substrate and solder until the solder reflows. During the application of the light pulses, the power of one of the light pulses from the flashlamp and the temperature of the electronic component are measured, the measured power is converted to radiant exposure, and in response to the measured temperature of the electronic component, the duty cycle of a next light pulse is adjusted adaptively according to the radiant exposure of the one light pulse.

Electronics assemblies and methods of manufacturing electronics assemblies having improved thermal performance. One example of these electronics assemblies includes a printed circuit board (PCB), an integrated circuit package mounted to the PCB, the integrated circuit packing having a heat generating component, and a heat spreader soldered to the PCB such that the heat spreader is thermally coupled to the heat generating component of the integrated circuit package to dissipate heat generated by the heat generating component.

An assembly device for assembling a screw into a locking hole of a circuit board includes an assembled board and a guiding sleeve. The assembled board is configured to press against a circuit board. The guiding sleeve is movably arranged in the assembled board. A vertical channel is formed in an interior of the guiding sleeve. When the assembled board presses against the circuit board, one end of the guiding sleeve abuts against the circuit board, and the vertical channel is opposite to the screw hole on the circuit board. The screw is accurately assembled into the screw hole of the circuit board, thereby improving assembly efficiency.

An apparatus for automating the fabrication of a copper vertical launch (CVL) within a printed circuit board (PCB) includes a feed mechanism to feed and extrude copper wire from a spool of copper wire and a wire cutting and gripping mechanism to receive copper wire from the feed mechanism, cut and secure a segment of copper wire, insert the segment of copper wire into a hole formed within the PCB, solder an end of the segment of copper wire to a signal trace of the PCB, and flush cut an opposite end of the segment of the copper wire to a surface of the PCB. The wire cutting and gripping mechanism includes a wire cutter to flush cut the segment of copper wire and an integrated heated gripper device to receive the copper wire from the spool of copper wire and cut and grab a segment from copper wire.

The present disclosure provides systems for applying a compression load on at least part of an application specific integrated circuit (“ASIC”) ball grid array (“BGA”) package during the rework or secondary reflow process. The compression-loading assembly may include a top plate and a compression plate. The compression plate may exert a compression load on at least part of the ASIC using one or more compression mechanisms. The compression mechanisms may each include a bolt and a spring. The bolt may releasably couple the top plate to the compression plate and allow for adjustments to the compression load. The spring may be positioned on the bolt between the top plate and the compression plate and, therefore, may exert a force in a direction away from the top plate and toward the compression plate. The compression load may retain the solder joint and may prevent the solder separation defect during the reflow process.
