ABSTRACT

Modern electronic assembly technology provides many options to the designer for achieving the objectives dictated by equipment performance criteria. Among the most demanding of these criteria are the restraints on packaging density, the ability to endure environmental fluctuations, and the reliability of the equipment. Hybrid assemblies offer features that assist the designer in meeting these requirements and others.
