Abstract
An impedance spectroscopy system characterizes the rheologic and thixotropic properties of solder paste and residues by measuring its impedance at various frequencies. The impedance spectroscopy system provides voltage and current inputs to a sample at various frequencies and measures the resulting impedance. The impedance spectroscopy system stores equivalent circuit parameters for multiple solder pastes and residues, controls the voltage and current inputs to the sample, displays measurement data in real-time, displays results, and notifies the operator if results exceed preset limits.
