| Sylvia, | I believe you will find that contrary to Scott Cooks submission, that the work carried out by Robert Clark of Hughes Missile Systems at (then) Tuscon Arizona formed the basis of the MIL-F-14256 spec which "Qualified?" or at least "Approve

Hi John, I don't know of any posters etc. but specs. are available free on-line at www.jedec.com for classification, time out of packaging before baking is required, bake times & temperatures. My understanding is that it only causes a problem if th

Still cant get a fix to SMD soldering problems, Joints still look strong shiny and well wetted, although when pulled lead still coming away from pad, leaving a dull grainy looking space. This is occuring just after reflow (convection), no other proc

1) The additional activity of the OA flux probably took care of the oxydation. How do you plan on taking care of the presence of conductive and corrosive residues from it now, though? You're not supposed to wash those parts with water. 2) The tomb

From personal experience, if the PWB vendor is cutting costs and doing their final rinse with tap water instead of DI you will get ionic contaminants left on the board. You might consider having CSL, or one of the other independent labs mentioned e

Ionic cleanliness is pretty much meaningless, when discussing nc flux residues. If you do the good solder routine and measure the boards, you'll be in the out-house, because the water in your resistivity of solvent extract tester will turn the res o

Just something we have done with our low volume cleaning of boards. Go buy a cheap steamer and a slow cooker. Let the boards submerge in the cooker at 160 degrees on a grate for about 30 mins than spray away. Don't forget the DI-water to put in it a

60-70% RH will be a challenge if you are running a water wash solder paste (and could be the reason you are seeing the problems). If you are running a no-clean, humidity should not be an issue. As long as the profile looks OK, I don't think the con
