Dear all, We have a PCB design mistake that causes exposed copper layers on the edges of breakaway locations. Although we fixed the design, but we already made a lot of boards plus many made before we found the problem. I wonder if any one have some

We approved the Reflow Profile from Cookson Solder Paste Manufacturer we are using. Now I am suspecting on method of vias designing below that QFP.There is exposed pad for that QFP and we print solder paste there , but when i see under x-ray there is

Are you exposing so you can solder and SMD component directly to it? If not are there ant vias near by that connect to the area you are trying to expose? If not I have done as Dave suggested using a dremal tool. Messy but it works.

Do BGA packages absorb moisture to a great extent if kept exposed to an atmosphere of 300C and 60% relative humidity overnight? Should they be backed before reuse. How long can they be kept exposed without the requirement of baking. Are there any spe

We are using ST Demodulator QFP in our product which have exposed pad / heatsink from bottom side. Visually or in magnifier the solder joint or fillet looks good but if we touch up the pins with soldering guns , PCB works fine.

After the CCA is been de-paneled I find exposed board fibers. Should the board edge be sealed with an epoxy to keep moisture from getting into the CCA?

some PQFN package configurations have no toe exposed or do not have a continous solderable surface on the exposed toe and a toe fillet will not form. (IPC-A-610F 8.3.13)

First, the reflow thermal recipe provided by your paste supplier is only a ball park guess. Beyond that, the temperature measured by thermocouples on your oven heaters are only loosely related the temperature of solder paste on your board. You need t

There is neither �nominal thickness� nor �is there a set maximum� for via masking. We use some of our vias as test pads. So, as you�d expect, we get rabid when we get mask bleed onto these pads. IPC-6012 - Qualification & Performance For Rigid Pri

Is the paste fresh or not or exposed to the floor for a longer time. What kind of the paste which you are using?
