IPC-A-600G, 2.9 Solder Resist [Solder Mask] [snip]"Solder resists are used to limit and control the application of solder to selected areas of the printed circuit board during assembly soldering operations and are sometimes used to reduce dendritic f

I have been trying to tell people at work that minor scratches on solder resist on BGA will not effect functionality of BGA, instead they want to attempt repair of these scratches. Any suggestions.

Hi Roderick, Guess it depends on how you define "minor". If it is just a visual blemish in the mask, there will be no affect o the BGA. If it is through the resist there may be a chance of solder shorting, which will affect it, I doubt it but poss

I am interested in locating a water soluble resist mask that does not leave a residue after wash and is easy to work with during the screen printing process. I have tried the Alpha Metals 110 and 220 solder mask and have found that it does not leave

Does anyone have design knowledge of why some manufacturers remove solder resist from the area around pads on fine pitch devices? What purpose does it serve? I only know that it would be better for AOI as you would not have light being reflected fro

Hi Simon, The main reason that it would probably be removed would be do to lack of clearance for a soldermask dam from pad to pad. typically if the clearance from pad to pad is under .008 the solder mask dam would be removed. Min recomended dam siz

Hi We are experiencing serious problem with ceramic capacitors. They are with low electrical resistence and the problem is intermittent. We found some of them with micro cracks but not all. What could be the causes for this problem? We are su

| Dennis, thanks for your input. I myself can't remember having any caps fail due to thermal stress/cracking. But the guru's here says it happens and since the assembly is for space flight, it's a requirement to preheat. Also, your process is exactl

Can anyone help to identify this little tan/brown colored pcb part? (The one labeled GND) I believe it's called an SMD ceramic capacitor but could certainly be incorrect. There don't appear to be any marking on it so beside the tan color, picture qu
