Course FYS317/3260/4260 tests

Word files of course FYS317 tests given at University of Oslo during the last years: Test 94, Test 95, Test 96, Test 97, Test 98, Test 99, Test 00, Test 01, Test 02, Test 03, Test 04, Test 05, Test06Test07, Test08, Test09, Test10, Test11, Test12 and Test13. These can be used as Hands-on exercises.

Guide to answers some of these tests: Guide 94, Guide 97, Guide 99, Guide 00, Guide 01, Guide 02, Guide 03, Guide 04, Guide 05, Guide 06Guide 07 , Guide 08, Guide 09, Guide10 and Guide11, Guide12.and Guide13.

It is strongly recommended that the students as a preparation for the test try solve tests from earlier years. In this way they will be familiar with the typical way tests are made, at least as long as Per Ohlckers is main lecturer. They will also get a better understanding of which parts of the course that are considered most important. The tests are made to make the sensor best possible able to distinguish the competence level between the students. The easiest questions shall show whether the student has minor basic understanding of the field. The most difficult questions shall show which students should get top score because they have a thorough in-depth understanding and knowledge in the field to describe the different technologies accurately and to assess them compared to related technologies, as well as know important more detailed matters, such as material properties etc. In between the easy and the most difficult questions there will be questions ranging from modest easy to modest difficult. A good test tactic is to set your score ambition level during the preparation, and first start to acquire a basic knowledge, understanding and overview of the field, and then dive into more thorough and detailed matters. For instance, being able to describe thick film technology and compare it with thin film technology is the kind of knowledge you should be familiar with before you start with more detailed matters, like for instance being able to do comparisons of dielectric constants of frequently used materials.


Abstract of book

The book is primarily meant for university education in introductory electronic packaging technology. An overview is given, that encompasses materials aspects, metallurgy, chemistry, physical, and mechanical properties. An understanding of the interplay of all these basic fields is necessary for choosing and using the available packaging technologies optimally, making a good design that can result in a product with the right quality. Component technologies are described, basic processing methods, printed wiring boards, design guidelines, the production of printed circuit boards and the common hybrid technologies, including multichip modules.

The book is based on a course presented at the University of Oslo over the last 6 years. It is written with financial support from the European COMETT program, as part of the project COMETT INSIGHT.

The first edition was published in 1993. The most important change in this revised edition from 1995 is an additional chapter on micromachined devices. (Chapter 9) The other chapters have only minor changes.
