I was notified that one of our operators took it upon themselves to run a board assembly through our reflow oven multiple times when he discovered what looked like incomplete reflow. Based on this being done, its been asked of me how, if any, has the

hello guys and gals: we know that BGA placement or rework are such a pain in *** oh well! but i was wonder if you can help me to figure: how many BGA do you place on board annualy? (just a bulk park idea) do you rework BGA in house? do you think

Latest and greatest after discussing w colleagues w experience in commercial electronics. According to the 'Printed Circuits Handbook' by Clyde F Coombs JR, the number of "SMT solder rework cycles per component per board is kept to two-three. Beyond

Our customer ask us how many repair (component removal, change and soldering) we guaranty for SMT components on our printed wiring board. We all have the number "3" in mind but we can't justify it by a standard. We can't reply "state of the art". Doe

Hello, I want to ask on suitable temperature profile for PCBs with ENIG final surface finish. I know that it is complex question with many unknowns. When the PCB will be standard 1,5 mm 35/35 Cu and the amount of components will have any influence o

"IPC-2221 - Generic Standard On Printed Board Design" talks to fiducials. Anther take on fiducials says they shall meet the following requirements. * Make fiducials 1 - 1.5 mm diameter circle. * Cover fiducials with tin. * Keep solder mask opening at

Hi, I agree with everyone else talk to the Mfg and ask for their recommended profiles. They should know the heating and the cooling profiles. If you really want to do this yourself you are going to have to run several experiments to determine just

What is the recommanded profile for board which consist of 0402 & 0201 comps. to reduce the effect of tomb-stone. Slow ramp rate ? how slow is considered as slow. Soak time 60 or 120 C,at which end should I stick to? what is the best time before reac

This looks like it may be a good application for an Air-Vac or Wenesco type solder station. It is a solder pot that has a small motor to pump solder up through a chimney. You can put different nozzles on the top of the chimney, so you only apply sold

Not as such. Generally, people tailor their profiles to produce glam solder connections on their boards. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for discussion on the factors affecting solder reflow recipes. What is the best way to get these PCB made to s
