perhaps we can help you for this SMT and THT part soldering problem, better not bend it not too hard. Electronic manufacturing pcbsino.com

Justin, I would be currious as to your customers application, and if the temperature delta and rate are great enough to cause solder joint failures as a function of mismatched Tce then you may want to consider that even if you are able to identify

Mike, Thanks for the reply. It's not really a matter of slope. It is the long term thermomechanical fatigue that the solder joint undergoes as a result of repeated severe temperature swings, while the product is in use. Non-leaded parts are suscep

Justin, I have a customer who is considering changing from TH to SMT, but his preliminary reliability testing yielded solder joint failures, because his product must endure severe temperature swings. He can't change to an expensive substrate, or he'

Jim, I wouldn't sweat a TCE mismatch between Ceramic chip components and FR4. No need to worry. 99.5% of consumer product out there utilizes this exact technology with no threat of failure due to CTE mismatch. The terminices of the components occu

How did you come to the conclusion that you are having a cold joint problem. Just by appearance ? As Dave stated if you have any of the metals that he listed in the joints they will appear to be dull and grainy sometimes. But... Dave, I will have t

Dear Steve, Thanks for your feedback in our experience add solder paste volume is better for the voids reduce of LED type components.

Dear CW, Yes, we also tested many different brands and models of solder paste, under the same stencil design and reflow profile the condition of the voids will have great difference.

I have personally never seen a reflow profile change reduce voids. We have invited "experts" in to demonstrate this claim. They were unable to.

Increase paste volume and use ramp soak spike profiling. Reducing volume of paste often leads to entrapment. Good idea to know difference between voiding and dewetting due to contamination
