Abstract
Laser soldering, as a viable technique for surface mounting assemblies, is reviewed. The criteria for selection of a CO2 or a Nd:YAG laser are discussed. New data are given that quantify the beneficial effects of laser soldering on the solder fillet microstructure, and how this relates to in‐service performance.
