Dear all, My customer is asking me to add chevron solder mask registration marks to their board design, drive fabrication capability study from their board vendor(s), and make sure tolerances are established correctly for copper traces and solder mas

Hello Loz, Blue residues on circuit boards can be caused by copper corrosion, component body deterioration, marking permanently, and adhesive break down. In this case, a more subtle mechanism appears to be possible. This is a no clean application

Grant has a good idea, we started that way also. We made a tank out of stainless steel with copper tube coils about 18" off the bottom. Circulate cold water through the tubes to condense the vapor to keep the loss down. We used electric burners under

warning - not all stainless steels are non-magnetic! Quite a few alloys are magnetic, some as highly magnetic as ordinary steel. One quick test is to demagnetize the jaws. If you can find one of the old-style Weller soldering guns with the copper

Hi All, I would like to get some inputs regarding this.... I have bare PCB which were stored with kapton tape attached on the Au plated pads. These were stored for close to a year. Upon removal of kapton tape, we noticed discolorations on the edges o

saturation occurs at ppm levels. Remember, IPA is extremely flammable and its bulk use makes the plant liable to all sorts of quite repressive safety rules/regulations and so on. Ignoring these rules exposes the owner to fines and possible plant cl

Ron, Some places want/need oven calibration and some don't, just need a profile. I've worked for both. If you need oven calibration, an easy, inexpensive way is to parallel thermalcouple wire to your existing thermalcouples. Terminate the ends of
