Time, time, time. There just never seems to be enough!!! Eh? You�re correct. Depending on the material, some trays can take a high temperature bake, while other trays, in addition to tubes, and reels, require a low temperature bake. With this la

For laminated FR4 PCB, we bake between 6 and 24 hours at 100�C. [Search for other bake recipes in the fine SMTnet Archives.] Alot of the determination of baking time is a function of: * Amount of moisture absorbed. * Amount of moisture you need to r

We find that baking PCB assemblies at 90 degrees C in a Blue M forced air oven is safe for most all PCB's that we have encountered over the past 12 years. We remove any external plactic hardware that may be attached to the assembly and also like to

The follwing is from the Technet archives, per IPC's Jack Crawford. I dug it up during some investigation of a supplier's issues with humidity in an Asian plant: There is support for this in IPD-HDBK-001 w/Amendment 1 Handbook and Guide to Suppleme

WINSLOW IS NOT THE BEST CHOICE, WE HAVE TRIED SEVERAL DIFFERNET STYLES OF BGA'S WITH NO LUCK. WINSLOW HAS EVEN HAD TROUBLE RE-BALLING OUR BGA'S. THEY SUGGEST LONG BAKE TIMES, DIFFERENT FLUXES...ETC NOTHING HAS WORKED PERFECTLY. THE PREFORMS ARE B

Ideal storage conditions to stop pcbs absorbing moisture is at less then 5% RH, for example in sealed moisture barrier bags. You mention that storage was at 40~70%...at these levels the pcb will absorb quite a bit of moisture. Your baking time was no

We find it is a bigger issue in the summer when there is more humidity in the air even though our facility is air conditioned. We've also seen similar boards go through the same process and vendor A has problems and vendor B doesn't, so fabrication t

According to J-STD-033 Table 4-1, the bake out time to restore the clock to zero is not only determined by the MSL level, but the package thickness as well. Section 4.2.2 states "SMD packages shipped in low temperature carriers may not be baked in t

IPC-HDBK-001 w/Amendment 1 Handbook and Guide to Supplement J-STD-001 (Includes J-STD-001B to C Comparison). During fabrication and storage, both components and PWBs will often absorb water. If left in the device, this water will vaporize at solderi
