Implementation of the Internet course on conductive adhesives for electronics packaging

Abstract

The authors have developed a course on electrically conductive adhesives for Internet delivery from multiple sites. The paper lays out detailed lecture by lecture content, and details of the experimental sequences, which include both high end analytical techniques and experiments which would be adaptable to any basic undergraduate laboratory environment. Today the course is now installed in an Internet server for easy access. The course starts with a general introduction of conductive adhesive joining technology, followed by a section on ICA part. The course ends with the ACA part of the conductive adhesive technology. Both audio and video techniques are used to facilitate the study.
