Theoretically, the energy provided by a battery depends only on its active substances. Practically, just a part of a battery's capacity can be used, due to the nonreactive substances that add up to the process and which influence the magnitude of the charge-transfer reaction, diffusion rates and energy losses. In this paper five methods for modeling the batteries were presented, and one improved empirical model was implemented. The empirical model was built using Mathcad and was validated through the comparison of the experimental obtained characteristics with the ones given by the producer.","PeriodicalId":337429,"journal":{"name":"2009 32nd International Spring Seminar on Electronics Technology","volume":"105 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116631629","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Those according to physical principle particular cleaning processes limits the area of application of existing system. At the selection of cleaning equipment is very important specification of their efficiency. For this purpose we have developed the quantifiable analyze of contaminated patterns. Evaluating is realized by test pattern on which are applied cleaning processes with different parameters. Next operation is visual controlling of residual contamination. In this way we are capable to determinate the average efficiency of cleaning system, specific efficiency on concrete test pattern and the homogeneity of cleaning efficiency in cleaning chamber. Important for cleaning process is an activity of cleaning medium. The activity of cleaning medium must be over minimum limits. Time intervals are set constant by the parameters of cleaning process especially its activity. For this reason is useful online monitoring of cleaning medium efficiency. This method requires universal sensor of medium activity.","PeriodicalId":337429,"journal":{"name":"2009 32nd International Spring Seminar on Electronics Technology","volume":"161 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115173363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Both sensors consist of two high doped silicon electrodes. Usually, for both pressure measurements, one electrode is anisotropic etched to obtain a sensitive membrane and the other one is solid with a carbon nanotubes (CNTs) array. The field emission sensor works on the principle that the field emission current is correlated with the electrical field intensity, i.e. the anode-emitter distance when the applied voltage is fixed. The capacitive sensor takes advantage of CNTs dimensions to increase the surface. This means that the CNTs array in the emission sensors serves as the emitter source of electrons between the cathode and the anode in the electric field and the CNTs arrays in the capacitive sensors increase the surface of the electrodes, which are similar to a plate capacitor.","PeriodicalId":337429,"journal":{"name":"2009 32nd International Spring Seminar on Electronics Technology","volume":"s3-4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130174444","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In some cases these failures can lead to catastrophic failure. The phenomenon of electrochemical migration is one of the most dangerous failure mechanism which usually results in short resistive circuits. In this paper electrochemical migration (ECM) failure phenomena is be investigated which was real-time monitored by the measurements of electrical parameters of conductor patterns with immersion Ag and immersion Ag finish coated with Sn60Pb on Printed Wiring Boards (PWB.) Highly Accelerated Stress Test (HAST) and Thermal Humidity Bias (THB) tests were carried out and Mean Time To Failure (MTTF) comparison was investigated between immersion Ag and immersion Ag coated with Sn60Pb.Only preliminary investigations were presented in order to determine the steps of the full ECM process on different substrates, surface finishes, solder alloys under various climatic conditions. The key findings were that the MTTFs during HAST tests were significantly shorter than in case of THB tests.","PeriodicalId":337429,"journal":{"name":"2009 32nd International Spring Seminar on Electronics Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130318722","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Actual progress in the industrial application of piezoelectric materials such as Lithium Niobate (LiNbO3), Langasite (LGS), Lanthanum-Gallium Silicate La3Ga5SiO14 and Gallium Orthophosphate (GaPO4), allows the manufacturing of devices with performances, which overcome the limits obtained with quartz crystals. One of the most important applications of SAW microdevices is passively, wirelessly interrogating systems. Today, GaPO4 with its properties is by far the best suited piezoelectric material to be used in sensor applications for machine monitoring and pressure measurements, at high temperatures. SAW microdevices based on GaPO4 operate at temperatures of up to 800°C. In this paper is presented a short introduction regarding the actual level of SAW microdevices development. We discuss our investigations as a comparative study of GaPO4, Langasite, and LiNbO3, regarding their properties. Each has unique strengths and weaknesses giving advantages in different applications.
