Nordic aQFN73 stencil design

Update - next run started out horribly so went to another stencil design. Reduced thermal pad coverage by about 40% with 4 panes, with cutouts to avoid the vias. Worked like a charm for 10 boards (90 parts). I think we're finally on to something.

What's the best company for low volume, quick turn around PCB assembly?

Not sure how anyone could pretend to "ballpark" a cost for a board, regardless of size, especially in small quantities. You might need 10 assemblies, but the MOQ for your main component might be 100, 200, 500, 5K pcs. Makes me laugh every time I

If you require several changeovers per shift the quick connect closed loop pump option would be your best bet.You can change between pump and blades within minutes. Hoever if you have several different size pumps a simple pump switch over would be pe

Kinda what I thought, Ken, what would the parameters be relating to sphericity, flux, etc... We use type 3 63/37 usually watersoluble but for this I think I'm gonna have to use no-clean paste. When you say it can be done, what exactly does that

Hi Phil, It all depends on your product. You say small lot sizes, but are your board 20 by 20 inches in size with 5K parts both top and bottom? If so then even building 3 of these could take you days to build. Then take you weeks to trouble shoot

We are encountering BGA solder open connection. At Functional Test, the board failed. Debug guy diagnosed this BGA open connection (2 locations), by using multimeter. Under 5DX inspection, there is connection. Take the board for localised reflow at

Attrition... how to measure it?

Electronics Forum | Tue Jan 24 21:30:09 EST 2012 | jorge_quijano

It means the machine places another component, no missing PCBs are built. As an update I have measured this % in the newest machine and it is below 1%, but in our worst machine (old quad) it is as high as 9% for a small batch of 10 boards (~15 comp p
