Component shelf life depends on: * Solderability protection type. * Quality of process and materials used in applying solderability protection. * Duration of time from when the solderability protection was applied. * Packaging used in component stor

Hi Ray, A couple of things to look into: 1.date code of reel 2. what is the termination made up of tin/lead or tin/lead/palladium. Check with part manufacturer. 3.paste volume/aperture openings 4.PCB plating 5.solder paste formulation Good luck R

Chris, Two points of perspective are: 1 Solderability: The shelf life of components has elapsed when they are no longer solderable. There's tons of variables that affect this, but keys are: * Intermetalics grow as a function of temperature. * Th

This is getting to be a more common practice, especially with the application of a 2-D bar code directly to the board (via laser, ink jet,etc.) Some really major companies are jumping on the bandwagon because it also allows treating each board as a l

| Hi there, | I'm actually facing a lot of trouble with PCB's presenting up to 3mm of bow /twist at reception i.e. before assembly. The PCB size is 220 by 230mm. The boards are to be assembeled SMD double sides with 05.mm pitch on both sides. In orde

I'll try to deal with the issues as you've presented them. 1. Blistering/delamination, shown in photo 2. The most likely cause of blistering/delamination like this is moisture in the boards. The moisture can get into the boards in multiple ways..

G, You'll find at least one old thread in this Forum on dual-reflow if you do a search. I found one dated April 7, '98 (searched on "reflow"); this particular thread includes a discussion about the maximum weight-to-surface_area for successful dual
