Therein lies the issue. Unknown storage conditions before we received the PCBs, date codes just expired (2 weeks), first article is de-lam city! Had a bad feeling about it. Have read some studies showing that there is no linear tie in of visual cha

| Currently, we are baking any PCB before process on SMT, the 'reason' is to dry any possible humidity that could be inner the PCB, it does not matter if the PCB is multilayer or not. We bake PCB's at 107C for 4 hrs and the board must be process into

Two things ... A friend in the contract coating business said: "... the board is not being baked out long enough, 30 min is certainly not long enough depending on how many layers this board is, as the vacuum (from the parylene process) is pulling t

Rinse IPA 5 Min --> Treathment/soak IPA50%+SILENT50% 5Min --> Baking 60C/30Min --> Parylene coating (around 8Hr in chamber) --> Found defect spot. We have simulated and ensure board drying before parylene that still have spots. Need help - Thank y

Hello, Are there any rules for PCB drying (baking) before assembly; Date code criteria, finish process on PCB, storage conditions.. ect. I know some assemblers that are baking all PCB (not ENTEK!) as default before assembly, is it realy nessesary? i

Q1: What is "enough surface free energy"? A1: Look here for background: http://www.azom.com/details.asp?ArticleID=1575 Q2: How do I determine surface free energy? A2: We look at it a relative term. For instance, a semi matte finish on solder mask

Bake your solder mask and then solder coat. If you are going to put an immersion finish like Osp, gold, tin or silver you would have to do a Micro etch to clean the copper prior to placing the surface finish. Regards, Board House

depends on board finish and PCB substrate materials. If you were using OSP or silver finished bare boards the time to process is less than an ENIG or HASL finished. certain substrate material absorb more moisture than others or at a quicker rate. so
