Is there a limit to the time that most components can stay at temperatures around 130-200 deg c? if i slow the time, the first 4 zones will be at this temp for about 5 minutes in no lead process. i am concerned that some chips wont be rated at this t

my oven has a built in profiler, it works fairly well, but it can not predict changes. my main concern was about the time right before reflow. i know that's where the flux is activated and i was worried that i may be spending too much time at the tem

You can keep only the 5th zone as the reflow zone. And lower the first two zones to keep a good ramping rate. Meanwhile,please note the ting temperature in software or control panel is not the exact temperature in your PCB, you'd better get a KIC or

I am trying to optimize my reflow profile. i have a 5 zone oven. lead-free: for the 1st 3 zones, i am good, at about 150-200 deg for 150 seconds. during the 4th zone, i am at a temp of 200-220 for 50 seconds. during the 5th zone, i am at 220-245 f

If you have concerns, you can look at the datasheet for each component or contact one of their application or materials engineers and find out what the components are rated for...process-wise. IE, how long can I be in the oven with this part, at what

I am not very concerned about production time, but it is always a thought! Quality is more importnant of course. We have 2 different pastes, with almost identical requirements. We can get close to their profiles, but i am worried that i am spending

Please search the archives as this has been discussed on many occasions. Everything should be fine except for BGAs which will require a higher temp of 235C at the peak in reflow.

Dear All, I´m looking for a low temp solder paste with Lead. I know that, with lead free, is common solder paste with bismuth for low temp in Pin in Paste line, but one customer aks me about low temp solder paste with lead. If anybody knows about and

I took a Lead Free troubleshooting Class at SMTA in Chicago last September taught by Phil Zarrow. He told us during that seminar that its not a good practice to cross contaminate Leaded and Lead Free components but IF it is necesary than using lead

We use SAC305 and top side particular joint temp. is 110 deg C, and the terminal finish for that particular lead is pure tin. It look like hot tearing at the primary side of PTH.
