Proceedings of the Conference on Rework and Repair of Printed Circuit Boards Held at The Aerospace Corporation, El Segundo, California, 22, 23 March 1977.

Abstract

On 22 and 23 March 1977, SAMSO and Aerospace sponsored a unique conference on the rework and repair of already assembled printed circuit boards. Although there have been many conferences relating to the design, fabrication, and testing of space and missile systems and components, little attention has been directed towards repair and rework problems. This conference was intended to provide a forum for the exchange of industry and government experiences, problems and solutions in this specialized area. Printed circuit boards are used in space and missile systems to mount and interconnect the thousands of electronic parts in the various electronic components. Although it is everyone's intention to perfectly assemble the parts on each printed circuit board, and to never rework the boards after assembly, cost and schedule considerations require the repair or rework in many situations. Fundamentally, these situations develop as a result of poor workmanship, a part failure, or a design change. (Author)
