Surface mounting technology - Environmental and endurance test methods for surface mount solder joint - Part 1-2: Shear strength test
The test method described in IEC 62137-1-2:2007 is applicable to leadless surface mounting components and surface mounting connectors to which pull test is not applicable. It is not applicable to multi-lead components and gull-wing leads. The method is designed to test and evaluate the endurance of the solder joint between component terminals and lands on a substrate, by means of a shear type mechanical stress. This test is applicable to evaluate the effects of repeated temperature change on the strength of the solder joints between terminals and lands on a substrate.
Technologie de montage en surface - Méthodes d'essais d'environnement et d'endurance des joints brasés montés en surface - Partie 1-2: Essai de résistance au cisaillement
La méthode d'essai décrite dans la CEI 62137-1-2:2007 est applicable aux composants montés en surface sans connexion et aux connecteurs montés en surface auxquels l'essai à la traction n'est pas applicable. Elle n'est pas applicable aux composants à sorties multiples ni aux composants à sortie en aile de mouette. La méthode est conçue pour soumettre à essai et évaluer l'endurance du joint brasé entre les bornes des composants et les plages d'accueil sur un substrat, au moyen d'une contrainte mécanique de type cisaillement. Cet essai permet d'évaluer les effets de variations répétées de la température sur la résistance des joints brasés entre les bornes et les plages d'accueil sur un substrat.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
