Lead-free Manhattan Project – Phase 2

Date:August 17th –August 28th, 2009
Facilitated By: ACI Technologies Inc. Philadelphia, PA

Objective:
The two week event will regroup the Phase 1 team of experts to identify the weaknesses and gaps that have been suggested during the documentation of Best Practices in the Phase I of the Pb-free Manhattan Project. Once the technology gaps have been identified, a roadmap of potential future projects will be outlined to resolve the disparities in the Pb-free mitigation strategy. The studies can range from package and PWB designs, to material, manufacturing, and reliability issues. From this roadmap, a benchmarking metric can be established that will produce criteria for assessing and prioritizing Pb-free projects.

Attendance is limited to invitees only
