That link doesn't work for me. From the more you explain - it does sound like an issue I've had in the past on a few different builds. In the end we traced it to a fault with the paste (they were having mixing issues in the chemistry) but they as y

I am confused about the parameters of the reflow profile needed to solder lead free components. We assemble boards for automotive modules required with leaded solder paste. The boards have ENIG finish. The problem is that I see some wetting issues, v

We have the standard profile as a template made according to the solder paste specs. For some boards we measure the result at 2 points, on the board itself and on top of a sensitive SOT263 module and adjust accordingly. The solder paste is well kept,

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

Hey Gyver: If you don�t mind (which you don�t have any choice about, because I�m going to do it anyhow, cause it�s MY word processor), I�m going to respond genericly, but still be directed to your question. Much of the following is paraphrased from

I recognize this problem as well, building only prototypes with all attention possible, the (small) networks need extra attention for they show opens. Maybe it helps to increase the placementforce a bit to increase the contact area to the paste befor

Hi all, I was just wondering if everyone has experienced a significant rise in cost of solder bar & paste over the last 6 months or so. I use Alpha SACX and we have seen roughly 50% increase in cost . Just wondering what others are paying per kg?

Wayne, I haven't seen anything indicating that Gold Immersion is necessary for lead free... However, it is my companies preferred finish for lead free assemblies. We've taken this stance for the following reasons: 1. Better solder quality on th

One of the boards has a via designed right in the middle of a pad for a 1206 cap, one side only. This causes the solder paste to run into the via during reflow. We run No-Clean paste. One alternative is to increase the aperture on the stencil for tha

We know nothing about your: * Solder alloy * Materials of your board * Materials of your teminal block * Process setup of your wave * Wetting condition of the board or the terminal block ... but we'll take a guess anyhow. Tin-copper based solder all
