200-300u that�s tinny but I read IPC as saying ANY metal other than gold in the critical contact areas is not acceptable.

You can get a better Kapton tape (you must be using the cheap stuff) that leaves no residue. If that fails then you can get edge maskers that slide overtop of the finger and they are reusable. Or you could get a solder pallet made for the assemblies

Are there many of you who are soldering through hole parts in your surface mount reflow oven? How repeatable is the process? Do you need to touch up a lot after reflow? We don't do long runs maybe 200, 300 boards max. Can you just screen print t

Hi Thanks more than you know for your honesty. Honesty adds 200-300% value in my book of all times. I am glad your problem was so easily solved, and I agree that you did the right thing by appologizing to your PCB supplier. Great, Lets move on Y

There maybe multiple drivers to your problems. * First, decreasing bond quality with time indicates a plating issue. What's the actual thickness of your gold and nickel on the pads? * Second, the no-sticks indicate contamination. If it's organic, p

I would like to have some advise or explaination about the IPC610 spec. Page 6-51 and 6-52 concerning the solder stains on gold finguers: On the page 6-51, it's recommended to inspect the gold finguers with the unaided eye, but on the page 6-52, th

| I am trying to find out, what possibilities I have, to print solder paste on a board, when the task is to have 120 Microns thickness for the biggest part of the board (85% of the real estate), and then have 250 Microns of thickness on the remainin

You weren't specific about the frequency band were you're operating. So, let's pound a couple of stakes in the ground. * Conventional tin-lead plating of 200-300 �m is quite satisfactory for lower frequencies in the range of 2GHz. * At frequencies h
