Hi all, I'm would like to try intrusive reflow (pin in paste, paste in hole, etc.) on a connector using WS-609 solder paste (halide free, water-washable). I'm concerned about entrapped flux in the barrel of the solder joints. If there were to be e

what is the main reasons that casuing solder ball during reflow? and how to remove them? (mostly arround the connector leads or between the 2 0402 chips). solder paste is RMA type. need advise. thanks

The viscosity decrease on warming is one of the main reasons, but you also don't want to get moisture condensing on the surface of the paste. Activators in the paste (that are used to eliminate solderballs and enhance solderability on reflow) become

Hi, We are doing pin in paste reflow process in one our product ( but paste printed on bottom side of the board and top side will be assembled through hole component)in which faced cold solder issue in THT capacitor location after reflow. The solder

Yes you need solder paste for BGA. Have a look at the Free BGA documents on my home page which you can download. They cover design, rework, and general assembly www.bobwillis.co.uk | My firm has just begun it's first PCB that will use BGA packaging.

What do you mean the solder must "survive" 260C? What is your target temperature? Is it dictated by a component, the substrate or the solder alloy? Do you require a eutectic alloy? If not, the selection of alloys grows. (these are from memory...n

Maybe this piece of information will help. In China (just returned from visit) there are many factories that are using a dual temperature process using SAC305 or Sn100C and 42/58. Apparently this allows them to run their through hole parts through re

We've seen the same thing - leads of QFPs not as strong as we'd like them to be. In the past 4 years no problem, this Spring they start failing. Touch a solder iron to it and it solders fine. After crunching some data, we found that both QFPs fail
