A pressure vessel venting, dust collecting, and noise silencing system for continuous venting of dry process air during the filling and depressurization of pressure vessels configured to contain, for example, barite or the like, by filtering of vented air through a filter media, with the air discharge being controlled by a pressure sensor actuating a depressurizing regulator valve, located between the vessel and the filter.

An improved solder bump composition and method advantageously employs a thin low-alpha layer of lead (Pb) deposited in close proximity to alpha particle sensitive devices, while ordinary (i.e., low cost) Pb is used for the bulk of the solder bump. This approach allows for reduced overall cost while still providing protection from alpha-particle induced soft errors. The low-alpha layer reduces the flux of alpha particle into devices in two ways. First, the low-alpha layer is itself essentially Pb210 free and therefore alpha particle emissions from the low-alpha layer are negligible. Second, the low-alpha layer is substantially opaque to alpha particles emitted by the ordinary Pb which includes Pb210. As a result, sensitive circuits on a semiconductor chip employing the improved solder bump are shielded from alpha particle emissions of the low-cost Pb210-containing portion of a solder bump.
