All: I am reaching out to get some suggestions on the right flux to use as well as a recommended cleaning process for soldering a KOVAR RF shield using 80/20 Au/Sn solder to a ceramic hybrid. The recommended profile is 4-5 min at 280C and at least

Anybody have problen soldering a IC with leads that are copper base, plated with 300 u inch min. of 80Sn/20Pb solder? We are having problems soldering a 16 mil QVSOP to a Gold Flash Board. Thanks Chris

What is the composition of tin to lead in the "Liquid Tinner"? It's been my experience that the higher the tin, the duller the solder appears. I've used 63/37 and 70/30 that both look shiny, whereas 80/20 does look dull. Just another thought to cons

I've seen 2 types from China, one type was an amazing copy (Fuji supplier's factory back door possibly?) and the other was a cheap copy. The cheap copy was adequately functional, but I wouldn't want to bet on it's long term life.

Interesting Rob. The fake ones that I was told about would fail within minutes as the index wheels would be reduced to metal shavings right away.

profile it for the tin/lead paste. The tin in the solder paste will begin to disolve the sac ball. This is exactly the same scenario as 90/10 (80/20)high temp balls found on ceramic bga and many super bga devices (except the sac balls are now tin r

I agree with Claude's comment here. As the good old 80/20 rule suggests, 80% of your lost $$ may be coming from 20% of the parts on your list. So, I would spend 80% of my efforts to sort the list by "loss in $$" and try to reduce the loss of such.

Hi Nick, It's probably one of two devices - MOC8020 or MOC8021 depending on the CTR (Current transfer ratio). I have always used http://www.icmaster.com for older semiconductor datasheets. (Back in the old days we used to use the IC master data boo

Try asking your stencil supplier. One of mine recently gave me a sales pitch for something like you want. If you are mechanically adept and enjoyed Lincoln Logs, Erector Sets, Lego's, Panels and Girders toys then look at 8020.net. Extruded aluminum

Check stanley supply and techni tool. They have rack with no doors but you could prob fab something up. 8020 stuff isnt cheap either. I bet it would cost about 400+ to build a stencil rack plus all the labor and thinking involved. That being said, I
