water alone especially cold is not good enough, how do you check for hasl fluids when most residues left behind after improper cleaning are non ionic. Use 40C saponifier followed by heated rinse then cold rinse then DI rinse followed by dry.Nylon bru

Hello, I am wondering where I can purchase and read up on the specs for the proper solder flux pastes for Luxeon emitters. I notice in there aplication briefs they mention 380SR-flux gel and a few others but I no clue if that is a model number or wha

Sure. Here's what you should do to apply repeatable amounts of flux on BGA during rework: * Squirt some gel flux on a plate or something like that that has a flat bottom and raised sides to corral the flux. * Cut notches into one edge of an old credi

Sorry davef. I was not being clear. PCBAs came out cold soldered after being reflowed the first time with ALPHA WS-820. The flux gel ALPHA WS 609 was supposed to be applied only onto the terminations of caps where ALPHA WS-820 was for a second refl

Also is tacky flux the same as gel flux?

My operator applied flux gel ALPHA WS-609 on MG P/N FTH101XAP (CAP ALUM 100UF 50V 20% SMD) before aqueous washing the PCBAs. Solder paste used was ALPHA WS-820. Now the caps have yellow stains. Any solution to this is appreciated. Tks

Hello, The oven profil is not the solution! The only solution for the solder mount on the side is to put gel flux on the side of qfn and make a second travel in reflow . The flux remove oxyde from the copper that is not tinned and the solder is able

Hello Evtimov, thank you for your reply. I agree with you, using gel flux should be best. Did you use flux dipping station on a pick and place machine, or do it manually ?
