Does anyone have information regarding: -Moisture level (wt%) that may cause delamination in PCB�s. -Baking time and temperature if using a Vacuum Drying Cabinett and if using an air oven. (What I�m most interested of is Poly-Imid-Aramid.) -Are ther

Sirs, Please do me a favor to answer the following questions, thanks a million! 1. Will the baking of BGA or PCB cause more oxidation before the SMT process? 2. What is the acceptable Life Time of solderability at customer site? The time that the sol

We want to improve our process for accepting SMT solder paste stencils received from suppliers. Our process: * E-mail CAD aperatures to supplier with "readme" giving specific fabrication instructions to the supplier. * Receive stencil from the suppl

Hi! Some varibles that I would think increase the risk: -The use of Nitrogen when soldering. -The use of IR may cause thermal vias (if placed only on one "side") to produce uneven heat distribution and thus wick the comp. -Uneven heat distribution.

We have an ERSA machine here where we have solder "spikes" occasionally. We have made sure our flux is dispensing properly, we have adjusted z axis speeds, our preheater is heating properly, adjusted XY speeds, etc. Can anyone think of something we m

Our land patterns are slightly bigger than the part, we've had no problems. There are your own concerns about the part hanging over the pads, this can be ok or not depending on your application and/or how much part is over. I'm sure this is in the J-
