I thought this would be a good place to post to get input from the "trenches" as to what is going to be the next consumer fad? It seems like the market is in need of something new to instigate future consumption. I work for an electronic component

Hi folks, I have a conformal coating application where I need the coating to be UV stable for a number of years without any crazing or cracking of the coating. I have looked for such a coating and have come up empty handed. Much of the circuit boar

| I have a problem with measling on our PCB's. We saw it on our FR4 PCB's at final assembly yesterday. Is this a defect from the board vendor or something we did in our assembly process when building the PCA's (thru hole). Could the wave solder ma

You're correct. It's a peculiar looking defect. With measling, we expect to see discrete white spots or crosses just below the surface of the base material. We don't see that here. We do see a similar condition at almost every PTH in the picture, a

Any thoughts on this will be appreciated, thanks in advance for reviewing. This assembly has been processed in our facility by going through a press operation (~ 1731 lbs), then into wave solder. Note the discoloration around the pemnut. The discol

In the life of this product that you have been doing this process, has the material alway's been IT180 material? One problem with Lead free material is that it is more fragile that standard FR4 Epoxy laminate. And is known to have chipping or fractu

The time over liquidous of the profile seems short. But then again, who knows? Based on what you told us, I'm guessing at a board fabrication problem, either measling or delamination. Probably the former, rather than the latter. [Now, we remember

| We have experienced poor adhesion of acrylic conformal coating to plastic bodied IC�s. The observed symptoms of this are a blistering or lifting of the coating at the surface of the component, although peel testing has revealed that this is not al
