Some boards that are populated by one of our subcontractors are getting a white powdery residue forming on them. I think it is the non clean flux and process which they are using that is causing the problem. Their process is as follows. Flux is put i

We have a current problem on our packages after we bake it for 24 hrs prior BGA rework. Flux or white residues found on the connector leads and terminals that cause not contact problems during mating. Could you help us how to clean the fluxes properl

So, after the repair of a BGA, you notice white reside on a nearby connector. Correct? [Sorry we're so dense. Long day.] Tell us about: * Flux class used in repair * Flux class used in original assembly Why are you baking the assembly after repair

As we understand it, you: * Get some nice BGA from your supplier * Find BGA to be packaged properly * Bake the BGA for 24 hours at [what temperature?] to reduce the potntial for damaging moisture sensitive components during following processes * Remo

Do you clean the stencil manually or using the automated under-stencil cleaner on your Printer (recommended)? 1. Ensure that stencil wipes are lint-free and soaked sufficiently with solvent before use. 2. If your printer supports automated cleaning

The white residue can be caused by putting Alcohol on the no clean product. Some people will attempt to clean an area they have reworked.

We are seeing a white, powdery residue following the Wave process. Is this a solder masking issue (poor cure from the PCB mfg) or Wave process related? Any input is greatly appreciated.

I have experience to the Kester 2331 water soluble flux long time ago with white residue and it related to the solder masking. Check what kind of the solder mask and ask Kester to do the test for you. Rgds.
