Selective Soldering Frames can pull large amounts of heat from the solder wave at the point of contact, effectively lowering the temperature of the solder at the solder joint. You should confirm the temperature of the solder joints by running a therm

Hi, all. There is one 0.8mmX0.8mm QFN on almost of our PWBAs. But the quality report showed that we got bad solder quality for this component. My question is which elements are the root cause for this situation frequently? Thanks.

I'll try to deal with the issues as you've presented them. 1. Blistering/delamination, shown in photo 2. The most likely cause of blistering/delamination like this is moisture in the boards. The moisture can get into the boards in multiple ways..

Davef, It seems the tin resist residue on copper trace is root cause of whitish layer. but it could explian why I could not detect tin on fresh unit without UHAST. I have performed X-section and EDS analysis on many fresh units,but no any tin was

currently i'm open my stencil aperture is 80% from the land pattern. is this will cause insufficient solder at the terminal component or not? the stencil thichness is 6mil and the board run using SMT pallet which i consider there will be no option f

A little late to the party here, sorry... Has the joint been verified as a cold solder joint? That is, visually confirmed that it looks like cold solder, and, perhaps, xrayed to confirm the solder status? X-raying may sound a bit extreme, but you'

Hi, (me been absent for some time...) Are your brds confirmed HAL over copper? (check out what Dave F mentioned abt possible root causes) or are the brds HAL over nickle? (shd be no problem here, if so?) or are the brds strictly nickle plated pads?

I have a question about inspection, touch-up, and how far you need to go to get a product that meets the required IPC-spec. According to some reports (i.e. "New Study Reveals Component Defect Levels" by Stig Oresjo of Agilent) the average defect leve
