BS EN 62137-1-2:2007

This standard BS EN 62137-1-2:2007 Surface mounting technology. Environmental and endurance test methods for surface mount solder joint is classified in these ICS categories:

• 31.190 Electronic component assemblies

The test method described in IEC 62137-1-2:2007 is applicable to leadless surface mounting components and surface mounting connectors to which pull test is not applicable. It is not applicable to multi-lead components and gull-wing leads. The method is designed to test and evaluate the endurance of the solder joint between component terminals and lands on a substrate, by means of a shear type mechanical stress. This test is applicable to evaluate the effects of repeated temperature change on the strength of the solder joints between terminals and lands on a substrate.
