First, �flash gold� is very loose language. It means different things to different people. �Flash� gold is a thin coat of immersion gold. Imm gold self-limits at ~0.3um[12uin]. And fabs put-down �flash� prior to electroplating thicker gold for wi

Hi Paul, My discloser, I sell for an offshore house, this is Crap.... Section 3.4.3 Annular Ring (External) of IPC-6012A, which also calls out Table 3-5, states that "Plated-through holes identified as vias can have up to 90 degrees breakout of t

Hi Russ, Thanks for the reply. In IPC-A-610 Rev. C on section 5.2.9 {Mounting - Connectors] page 5-21 on the manual [January 2000], the acceptable class [1,2,3]listed 3 items. In order for the connector to be accepted, are all 3 items must be met? I

In a similar conversation ... Alex Krstic, NovAtel Inc. said ... Hello all. We recently received some boards with some of the chip resistors placed with their resistive elements towards the board. J-STD-001B and C view this as violation for both Cl

I prefer mine skewered with a remoulade, yum. IPC-A-610 allows component side overhang to the lesser of either up to 25% of the component termination width or up to 25% of the width of the pad for Class 3 devices. Help us understand your problem.

Hi Dub J, I have worked for a few companies that did 3D sampling and found the data they produce to be useless. In the real world they are slow, so that means you won't sample every board. Now if you're not sampling every board, and you start to r

If followed, would the following strategy meet the requirements of IPC/JEDEC J-STD-033A; All MSD components are either exposed for less than 1/2 an hour or final reflowed within 12 hours of opening. What I mean by exposed is any time the parts are n

Hello, I've been evaluating a bunch of wave solder fluxes and found one that is absolutely perfect. I'm so excited I can't wait to switch over. Unfortunately, I have to assure reliability, and the only test I have in-house is ionic contamination

| I work QA at an OEM in Alberta, Canada. I saw earlier posts on the smtnet regarding PCB haloing criteria. I am currently in a dispute with my PCB vendor over the acceptability of haloing (delamination) around plated through holes and vias on a lot

Wayne, I think Dave and Justin are correct but I would just add my twopennworth: Your customer presumably wants to know if the end-product will be reliable? If he/she wants you to prove cleanliness, ask them for the spec they want to work to and app
