Contrary to Brian's comments, Coating can SAVE your business
Save: Because you will have fewer field failures
Save: Because field failure could very well put you out of business
Save: Because if you design for coating, the cost is minimal v the benefit
Save: Because you may be compelled, by law, to coat - now why do you suppose
that is a mandate?
Save lives! - Circuits that are safety critical such as ABS, Air Bag or
Avionics systems, or weapons systems - where did my nuclear missile go? How
about utilities such as gas, electricity and water meters that often have to
survive for 20 years - GUARANTEED!
I might also point out - and others will correct me if I am wrong but - an
automobile could be guaranteed for more than 10 years if only the
electronics systems would last that long.
Come on Brian - your comments are not entirely fair. It is true to say,
no-one wants to coat but it need not be such a painful experience - what
price safety? Is $0.05 per assembly a high price to pay? - Play-station, TV,
Mobile phone, Computer OK, don't coat, after all, they would prefer you to
replace the unit.
I hope this helps you Ken but if you would like more, let me know
Regards
