... their lifespan and the product is required to survive common drop accidents. A widely accepted method to assess the drop reliability of microelectronics on board-level is the drop impact test. This test has been standardized by international councils such as Joint Electron Device Engineering Council...

...Chang-Lin Yeh; Yi-Shao Lai The ball impact test is developed as a package-level measure of the board-level reliability of solder joints in the sense that it leads to brittle intermetallic fracturing, similar to that from a board-level drop test. Following classical structural dynamics principles...
