The main criteria is at what frequency is the RF operating? If it's in the microwave region, forget no-clean. Low frequencies - 0 to 100 MHz, probably ok. Beyond that, it's application specific. Depends on components used and circuit design. The p

Is anyone out there having problems with noise in analog circuits caused by the residue that no-clean solder paste leaves after reflow? If so do you have any suggestions on how to eliminate the problem??

Kevin: What was the thinking behind your using a flux that required cleaning �on a post wash assemble for a power switch�? How do you keep the remaining corrosive flux residues from causing trouble [ie, corrosion, CAF, etc]?

Hi Happy New Year HASL fluxes Are very conductive so best advise is get it all off. thanks greg

Looking for any reliability data on aqueous flux residue causing low Z defects, specifically any data that may illustrate life expectancy under any humidity/temp environment. How long it takes for conductive material to migrate and form low Z impedan

Peterson: Ionic flux residues when combined with moisture and a voltage differential can plate conductive �fingers� on the surface of a PCB, but that doesn�t sound like what�s going on here. Your NC flux should not be particularly conductive. For

By definition, no clean solder can be not-cleaned. The solder/flux are formulated to result in low ionic-contamination, hence, no cleaning. I have, however, always had at least one customer that requests their no-clean solder get cleaned. No-clean

| Dear All, | | In order to understand the soldering technologies in SMT, I'd like to understand why some cards are soldered and then cleaned, or only soldered whitout water cleaning nor "ultra sound" wavelength. | | I mean that I wonder why we use

Canyou see this contamination? Is it solder beads, flux or something else? If flux, then more cleaning should help, either more time, more cycles through the cleaner, etc. If it is solder beads that are not melted to the rest of the solder, then s
