Hi, I have pcbs (Duroid/RT 5880) with raw copper, soldered in vapour-phase chamber at 230 degrees Celsius. During soldering, copper gets tarnished. Cleaning with Vigon A250 removes the tarnished layer. Indeed, in the VigonA250 techn. datasheet it is

Is there a preferred method among printed circuit board assembly for accurately and quickly verifying the copper weight of a printed circuit board? I would like a tool and process that our quality inspector could quickly use to verify upon receipt of

Hi, rod, The exposed copper area you could do with ENIG. It is with good solderability.

| We currently use HASL on all of our boards and I would like to move to something else. I have sampled some boards with Entek OSP and I loved it, the problem is we have plated mounting holes on just about every board we make. Does anyone have info

Mike, We are currently wave soldering several assemblies with with a lot of ground plane. The soldering handbook we have in house suggests a preheat temp for metal core multilayer boards of 230 to 270 degrees F' (110 to 130 C'). It was scary at fir

Like Russ, I am also curious about the 100% fill requirement. On any thick, high mass board the key is getting as much heat as possible into the board. If you get the board to the proper temperature, solder will flow just about anywhere. As an alte

From the poor bonding strength of the board, the surface quality problems of the board are divided into: 1. The cleanliness of the board surface; 2. The problem of micro graphite (or surface energy) on the surface. PCB circuit board proofing Youke bo

Some RF components are made in copper in weird spiral and parallel strip-line shapes. I'd either: * Send the boards back to where ever you got them and tell that bird brain to use SM-782 pads and practices. ... OR * Get the bird brain that sent you

They probably the same. Most likely someone is saying immersion gold [immersion Au] as a short hand for ENIG [ Electroless Nickel - Immersion Gold]. It is very uncommon to plate gold directly on copper, because gold and copper form a brittle interm
