Oooo, the solder on the pad and PGA ball is flowing during reflow down the via to the secondary side? Why didn�t you say so?? ;-) Why would you expect that gravity and capillary action wouldn�t force solder to flow down the solder plated via to the

We have one product with electroless nickel, immersion silver solderability protection. We do not purport to be experts, but like many things, have seemingly boundless opinions. Side note: There are a least three different [maybe five] imm silver

I certainly fit both citeria - 6'4" with a face like a bashed crab. I think I'm the one on the far right in white in the top picture at http://www.delicate.com/audio.htm which I believe is us at Mudd Island, Memphis in 1983. Alisa and Steve - now I

We are converting all our ENIG to imm silver. CHARACTERISTICS * Nominal thickness of the deposit will be 0.1 to 0.3 microns. * Deposit is flat and uniform * It will withstand multiple heat cycles in assembly, which can be problematic with tradition

Quite an assortment of opinions and problems, I appreciate everyones input. Based on all that I created a process below that seems to me should work well to reduce these problems. There seems to be plenty of blame to go around for everyone in the f

First, SIR data is heavily dependant on the test pattern selected. Be very careful when comparing the results of resistance readings taken from different geometric patterns. Second, if yer talkin': * Bare boards, yupper. * Finished assemblies impor

Patrick, My sardonic wit comes from 11 years of being an embattled process guy who�s basically �seen it all� in electronics manufacturing. I�ve been witness to the �Seagull Managers�, uneducated managers lacking credentials, managers with MBAs but

I'm no guru, but I am among the best that my home state's gotta offer... :-) Anywho.. a Production Manager's definition of cycle time is the time Production Planning schedules the stockroom to start picking materials for the work order, to the time
