Bev - As a previous owner of all 3 instruments , I can  state  that If I could  buy only one, it would be a DSC. 

> TMA too specific  to  CTE and somewhat more dependent  on sample dimensions.  Probes are pricey and  susceptible  to breakage. 
> DMA too academic and esoteric . Hard to convince "non-techies"   of what the data truly means.
> DSC somewhat of a  more universal instrument  suitable for both solder as well as polymer analyses. 

As an FYI  that you may  already be aware of,... there is an  IPC document which has a pretty good appendix briefly describing all 3 instruments, but alas I always forget  which one. Hopefully  some else will provide that bit of detail.

Subject: [TN] Which would you chose?

TechNetters,
If you had the choice of getting ONE of:
1) TMA
2) DMA
3) DSC

And $ was not an issue, which would you chose and WHY?  Please, no "it depends" answers and no, you can't throw TGA into the mix.

Regards,
Bev
