I am looking for a No-clean or water soluble solder paste, Sn63/Pb37 alloy, 15 - 25 microns (T5). I need to print with a 4.8 mil stencil opening. Does anyone know where I can get 250 to 500 grams in one week or less?

What is the general feeling in the industry on the use of 15.7 mil QFP's? Are most people shying away from them in favor of BGA or do most people consider 15.7 mil to be "standard" technology these days? What special considerations are involved? Ste

Hi Pete I agree with all that. But his question was "Are most people shying away from them in favor of BGA or do most people consider 15.7 mil to be "standard" technology these days?" So, the truth is people use both.QFP has advantages and disadvanta

I do not recommend using a HASL finish, you will have a very tough time printing repeatably.

Hi Steve, Why are you so concerned about QFP(0.4) or BGA? If your equipment can manage, what's the difference? If you are designer do it better and use the cheaper or smaller package(you decide). If not use machine with vision recognition and your pr

yo Evt, ".., what's the difference?". Answer: Huuuge!! between running 0.4mm pitch QFP and a BGA of same I/O, in terms of handling, storage, feeding (trays), p&p, inspection, test, rework, etc.......

Conversion refresher: 1 inch = 25.4 mm 1 inch = 25,400 microns 10 microns = 0.3937 mils 10 microns = 0.010 mm so 0.4mm = 400 microns and for s/n/g: 1mm = 3.240783e-20 parsecs (pc) Have some fun with that one!

Orrrrrr, you could eliminate the printing, shorting, and special surface finishes by bringing the boards in with the paste already on them. There is a process that is a much more forgiving method for applying paste called solid solder deposit. Check

We place a large amount of .4mm (what is that in microns?)QFPs every day. I would much prefer a BGA package. Reasons are 1. Pitch is greater which provides a larger process window 2. Alignment is easier because you don't need vision for BGA if you

Mils to MM is actaully English to metric. 1 mil is equal to 1 thousandth of an inch (0.001")or 0.0254mm so... 12mil pitch qfp is 0.012" or 0.3mm 15mil pitch qfp is 0.015" or 0.4mm 20mil pitch qfp is 0.020" or 0.5mm (Numbers are rounded)
