PWB Bake out or other elevated temperture processes can cause issues with oxidation of that Nickel layer. The gold porosity can vary from batch to batch, but also process changes can contribute. Are you baking the boards or have previous reflow pro

I've faced this several times in the past, and the only real solution is to wirebond before SMT assembly. Everything leaves a residue, and trying to clean a residue off later is basically hopeless. This may require some trickery in your SMT process

We've recently encountered some problems with wire bond strengths. I'm looking for anybody that has had some experience with different types of substrate contamination and methods for cleaning. There is no visible contamination on the gold pads, bu

A few weeks back we experienced a wave process problem where we received deposits on our pcb. At first we though it was dedrites but after an outside analysis of the deposits they were found to be tin. We have tried to remove the deposits with brus

When a hole is drilled during board fabrication, it can transfer resin from the base material (eg, FR4 core or prepreg) to cover the exposed edge of conductive material in the wall of a drilled hole. This is called resin smear. Etchback is a control

Hi, It's removed from the fridge, and the tube is loaded into the stencil printer, however it's winter here right now, so it's still quite cold. It's Australia, so when I say cold, that's relative, however the room can be about 10 dec C in the morni

I know it's a tin residue because we have a Cheme in house who had a spectrum analysis performed in an outside lab. The waves parameters were out of control long enough to effect a number of units that are, we�ll can I say substaincial in a fiscal s
