We believe that it's perfectly resonable for you to define the cleanliness that you require. We recommend that you leave it at that and not define the process or materials that your supplier use in meeting that cleanliness level. Start with a dirty

Many shops require levels for typical component packages on FR-4 or a like substrate to be 2, 9, 15, 1 and 10 mg/in2 for fluoride, chloride, bromide, nitrate, and sulfate respectively. These levels can change for Medical or Automotive.

Just wanted to do a poll to see how others are determining their test time for Ionic testing. Test Method IPC-TM-650 number 2.3.25, section 5.3.3, says "The test time should be in accordance with the monitoring plan criteria (set time or auto-shutof

We manufacture similar equipment. I would recommend that most of the testing be performed in an automatic shut-off mode. There are potential issues with both methods, automatic shut-off and fixed time tests. In an automatic shut-off mode, the cl

since IPC-J-STD-001 RevH obsoleted the 1.56ug/cm2 UCL of ionic contamination tester in testing using ROSE test, how do you define the acceptable limit per PCB assembly? thanks

1. Most ionic testing is measured in NaCl, that is, the ionic residues are quantified in terms of NaCl equivalence. The test does not determine what the ionic residue is, just its relative strengh. 2. I use IPC cleanliness specs on OA fluxes but n

We do cleanliness testing each morning using a Zero Ion tester. Our pass/fail number is set at 37ug/square inch NaCl. We are rarely above 10ug/square inch NaCl. We use Aqueous flux. Our inline washer has a prewash (70psi@130 degrees F), wash (?psi),
