That is inherent issue with lead free, you may want to ask your customer to reconsider this specification, It was probably initiated during the pb days when an exposed pad could signify a reflow issue. Overprinting will give you solderballs and unle

The solder looks a little grainy for Sn/Pb solder but that might just be the picture quality. There appears to be plenty of solder on the pads, so I'd rule out anything to do with the stencil. One possibility that springs to mind; how long is your

I am currently weighing up my options for resistors that will be fitted to a fully assembled PCB (PTH&SMT). Do I omit the stencil apertures leaving exposed pads (ENIG) so they can be hand soldered with fresh solder. Considering shelf life for soldera

I've got a small smt board I've already got working prototypes of, which uses a tactile switch. I've got another much less expensive tact switch of similar size that I had avoided due to a difference in actuators I originally had no way around. Now I

Hi mates, have this SMT production issue : A) We have a leadless-chip-carrier(LCC) IC package that is classified under the Land-Grid-Array(LGA) package family. B) The LCC is 4mm x 4mm, and has 28 tin plated pads located beneath the outside perimet

SR1000 is commonly used for tenting. Search the fine SMTnet Archives on : tenting Someone gave us this note. We have lost their name. It seems to be good advice. If Liquid Photo Image (LPI) solder mask is required, do not tent via holes. Tenting
