Hi, About Thombstone defects: 1.Placement accuracy-main reason 2.Soldering-should be right on pads.The print should have regular shape.The quontity of the solder on both pads on one component have to be equal. 3.Reflow: the profile have to be made v

hi, 1206 capacitor with silver/palladium termination is mounted onto a ceramics substrates. Bonding is achieved through conductive epoxy. We discovered that the epoxy cracked and this caused missing capacitor. We had tried different grade of epoxy,

It's difficult to tell anything from your picture. But playing the odds, I'd say it's not "gold corrosion." It is very difficult to corrode gold. Gold is a NOBLE metal. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In chemistry, the noble metals are metals

| We currently use HASL on all of our boards and I would like to move to something else. I have sampled some boards with Entek OSP and I loved it, the problem is we have plated mounting holes on just about every board we make. Does anyone have info

Bryan, 0402's tombstonning isn't that uncommon and usually the 1st reaction is alway's the pad size aint right. If you've followed the IPC guidline's normally you should be fine but I'd double check the component supplier's spec's as well. brian's p

AVX and a few other companies make these chip transient voltage suppressors (TVS) parts that are a real *PAIN* to use. According to AVX: "Due to the semiconducting nature of the doped Zinc Oxide (ZnO) ceramic material, SMT TransGuards are no

.025" pitch so the only problem we run into is too much HASL on the adhesive side causing improper glue dispense. | As Earl keeps saying HASL thickness is hard to impossible to control. I think we need to look hard at OSP's again but then you get in
