Subject:        [TN] Solder Joints

Hello all
I am interested in knowing if anyone is aware of any possible methods or
information regarding testing of solder joints. What I am looking for
specifically is a way of determining the strength of a joint and a way of
determining the properties (ie: thickness) of the intermetallic layer. I am
not sure where to find such information. I have attempted internet searches
but I have been unsuccessful. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
