We are in middle to prototyping a lead free assembly for one of our customers. We are using lead free bare PCBs, consumables and components, except for two ICs which are leaded per the customer BOM. Will the overall assembly be defined as lead free p

Obviously, it is not considered the ROHS compliance product already. One or few components are not ROHS, how can it be ROHS product? If it is agreeable by your end customer, you should list down the part which are using leaded product before hand, at

Here is a formula that may help. C/P C= Component's weight in grams P= Total pad area in Sq. in. Must be less than or equal to 30 Parts larger than a 68 pin PLCC should use an adhesive. Hope this helps.

Whoaaaa Genny, Its not that bad!!! The difficulty factor is in assembling your own boards is all releative to how many, and how difficult they are. Most studies show that the vast majority of defects in smd assembly are generated in the application

One of our customers had us building "Pb-free" assemblies with a few Sn/Pb parts on them. THEY got rolling too slowly and we were not able to bring in the required Pb-free components due to lead-time (not Pb-time) issues. When they started requesti

Pete makes great points. Taking a slightly different angle, use your placement equipment's software to help you. It keeps track of the number of picks and attempts for each location. Study these numbers for a week and determine the capability of p

Obviously the cost difference between only smt and smt+th is huge though TH only 1 components,they need different material,machines,tools and control methods,so if possible just use only smt process to assemble all components,but to verify if the usb
