| Currently, we are baking any PCB before process on SMT, the 'reason' is to dry any possible humidity that could be inner the PCB, it does not matter if the PCB is multilayer or not. We bake PCB's at 107C for 4 hrs and the board must be process into

Bare boards can be electrically tested by your board house.

We have seen this problem before. We have ALWAYS found it to be a board vendor issue. Also, we tend to see it more during the summer months. Our solution has been to bake our PCBs @ 50 deg C for 1 hr prior to use. We use immersion white tin board fin

I coated three other bare boards on one side this morning from two different suppliers. Two of them had exceptional adhesion and one was so-so. I ran them through the reflow oven, coated them and got the same results on the other side, so it does not

Dave, we have the same issue running a new bare board through the oven with no paste. If there is an imcompatibility with our flux would it still manifest itself when there is not flux? Im sure there is some residual flux in the oven all the time. We

Wayne; Several things. 1.check the vendors and see what black oxide they are using are they the same ? It might be that. 2.You should bake your pcbs before the thermal stress is applied. To remove moisture. At your shop. The proce

Causes of Delamination ["Quality Assessment of Printed Circuit Boards" Lund, Preben; Bishop Graphics 1985 0137450354] The reason for delamination is epoxy starvation in the glass cloth layers or an incomplete curing of the base material. It has been

Has anyone else been experiencing this lately? We have had a rash of boards that come in properly vacuum sealed. We store them in the hot room until we are ready to build, and we get bubbles under the solder mask. We've had 4 different jobs, all di

Has anyone experienced a problem with conformal coating adhesion to IS-410 boards? We are having problems with one suppliers boards. IS-410 boards from other suppliers are fine and all FR-4 boards that I have looked at are fine. We are using Conap

Thanks for the information Reworkman, We are leaning to the theory of better safe than sorry. I think I'd supply the bags and dessicant just to eliminate manufacturing issues. What temps & times do you ask your boardhouse to bake to? Ours said some
