I am a university student who is looking to ascertain the strength of SMT solder joints. I would like to know if there are any standard industry practices which are used to measure the force required to pull an SMT solder joint apart. I am mostly interested in solder joints involving J-type and gull-wing leads. Any information would be appreciated. Thank You, Valquirio N.
