Electronic card validation tests
Qualify your power electronics
Materials analysis
- Physico-chemical characterization and control of materials
- Chemical analysis: heavy metals, precious metals and rare substances
- RoHS testing : substance analysis in electrical and electronic equipment
- Accelerated aging of power electronics (under electro-thermo-mechanical stress)
- Functional verification, electrical checks and tests
Qualification tests, engineering, simulation
- Environmental testing: climatic, thermal shock, corrosion, fluid resistance
- Vibration endurance tests
- Mechanical fatigue tests
- Vibration and mechanical reliability study
- Sealing tests according to the protection index (IP)
- Non-contact vibration measurement on electronic components with scanning laser vibrometry
- Vibration isolation to limit component fatigue (integration with sizing of pads between casing and receiving system)
- Soundproofing solutions
- Design and digital simulation to integrate the components taking into account the vibration (avoid making casing resonances coincide with component resonances)
