“…Resistance microwelding (RMW) is an importance microjoining technology which is increasingly used in the fabrication of electronic devices, micro electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) and medical devices, such as batteries, relays, sensors, interconnections in printed circuit boards and pacemaker implants [1][2][3][4]. Compared to the extensive work in normal scale resistance welding, however, very limited information is available for RMW, e.g., recommendations for welding parameter selection and specific international standards on process, materials, and equipment are still lacking [1].…”
