We have successfully put .016" vias in .030" pads. There is no issue with .030" solder balls, since the actual volume of the .002" via in pad is small compared to the ball+solder paste volume. We did notice random bubbles where, apparently, the sol

I'm attempting to develop paste in hole process so that I can reflow a few plated through hole components on a mixed tech board. Tried various pastes, profiles and stencil thicknesses. Would appreciate any insights and/or pointers anyone can share on

The typical PIP process is incorporated into the surface mount process. This approach requires the following: The stencil will be designed so that the correct amount of solder paste can be printed onto the through-holes to form an acceptable joint

Hi All - My question is how do solder balls form and stay in the vias? The assembly goes thru SMT top placement, reflow then thru hole components mounts on top side as well. The board is sent thru the wave solder process. Has anyone experienced this

Wow, it's amazing what you can achieve with smoke & mirrors! Only joking. Does the original via hole covering solder get put on at the PCB fabrication plant, or by the customer? & Does the entire board get reflowed or do you have a process where ho

Hey Kyle - Good for you for pushing your horizons and considering pin-in-paste (aka "Intrusive Soldering"). Don't let the nay-sayers out there discourage you. When I encounter mixed tech PCBAs (SMT and through-hole) my first choice, if the design a

Thanks for the info, Here is a couple more questions (and you thought you were done) What size are these caps /res? how thick is your stencil? what type of oven are you using? what is the finish of the board? Anyway, it seems like (from a distance)t
