I'm looking for test labs in Taiwan that are capable of performing ionic contamination testing on small to medium sized SMT boards. I'm interested in both ion chromatography and ROSE test methodologies. Is anyone aware of any labs performing contami

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

Asoe, The systems you are describing are Resistivity of Solvent Extract (ROSE) Testers. These systems are available using one of two technologies, Static or Dynamic. Both systems use a calibrated test solution comprised of IPA and DI water. The t

Hi, we are looking for a contamination tester in this stage however it looks there is 2 ways of removing residuce from PWB: static and dynamic. Both introduce their advantage to me and cause me further confusing.I am not anyone here will have tried

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
