Masdi, Try board shunts. They are hi-temp rubber strips with grooves cut. They can be popped on and off with ease and are much faster than taping and considerably cheaper. They also work great for masking goldfingers prior to wave soldering. Contac

| I think that in general it's best to deposit paste in order to increase the part standoff. This helps improve the fatigue-life of the joints by providing more strain relief. But I know from experience that it's tough to deposit paste during the r

Your process needs some refining. How long did it take to wet? How much force did it take to break the surface tension? What type of solder was in the solder pot? What type of flux was used? What was the pot temperature? Did you take a cap and p

We've got this hard-to-Wave-solder board where all of the SMD's are on a ground plane - in fact the entire bottom-side is a ground plane. Our designers have incorporated thermal relief on some of the pads, but for reasons unknown to us, they don't h

Hi Chen, Based on your posted message, the following ideas are for your consideration: "brown residue" The water soluble solder paste you are using could be a water soluble rosin solder paste formulation. Perhaps the solder paste may not be proper

Gentlemen, I too have been atacked by that "soldering to gold" and will add my 2 cents. I also had parts that would pop off the board when the fillet looked perfect. After lots of pain, experimentation, and sleepless nights, I solved it through a

Hello Netters, I need some info, Earl or Dave, I have a PCB that exhibits a white layer on solder side. It does not appear to be surface residues (IPA has no effect), but looks like its under solder mask. My first guess is that the LPI solder mask
