Armando: We're guessing that the white residue is on the laminate also. We believe that the residue has something to do with your low residue flux and water. It could be: * Water contamination in the flux. * Poor selection of preheat temperature that

If you think the problem is occurring in the box and it is wide spread, consider replacing your solder paste with your paste supplier. There are paste formulations aimed at the solder balling issue that some LF pastes create. On tuning your reflow r

thank you for the information .We are planning to send the units for analysis.

We use a NC Flux in the wave solder and after aAcelerated Life Test cicle we found contamination white residues paths between some solder points. Does somebody know a possible cause for this contamination.

Ideally first you need to analyze the residue to see what it is. We had a customer with white residues after wave and elemental analysis revealed tin.

Hello everyone! I have a problem with PCB, we detect that some contamiation apear (dark spots similar to glue or underfill) we detect that this element is Policarbonate. I don't know if on PCB fabrication process some policarbonate are used. We alr

You can most certainly use the same reflow oven for both leaded and lead-free pastes. Obviously your thermal profiles will be different, as the lead-free paste should have a higher reflow temp. As long as your oven has adequate exhaust and flux manag

Resistivity Of Solvent Extract [ROSE] is a bulk ion contamination [BIC] test method. It should thought of as a process control tool used to assess ionic contaminants. Don't consider it an acceptable tool for establishing 'GO-NOGO' limits. The stan

Hello Armando, this is what I found into the handbook "Failure Analysis of Electronic processes" : "...Flux residues with water-soluble flux activators that are conductive and corrosive if left on in large enough quantities are detrimental. If you

Hello I am having a problem with the flux in the wave solder, I am using a sonoflux 9000 this machine uses a air knife to spray the flux, it creates a mist that when hits the air knife pulls the mist up to the pallet where the board is, but for som
