Where can I find a spec to put on my fab drawing, to call out the cleanliness of the board, before I recieve it. These boards will require a tight spec after they are assembled, so I want to know that they are clean when I get them. Any suggestions.

Yes, providing your: * Inbound material does not compromise your process. * Soldering processes apply the proper amount of flux and activate it properly * Material handling does not contaminate your boards Recognize that the IPC requirements of less

Vinesh: You�ll find no papers that "clearly describes the harmful effects" of your style "of white residues," because no one is crazy enough to brag that they are doing what your customer wants you to do. The residue of no-clean fluxes are designe

Some requirements to consider are: * Humidity and temperature controlled according to J-STD-001 * Electro-static discharge (ESD) control program according to ANSI/ESD-S-20.20. * Soldering technicians are trained and certified according to J-STD-0

We are trying to establish requirements and process controls for completed, cleaned SMT assemblies. We have problems with our high impedance circuits (100 meg ohms) being affected by residue. Some boards require additional cleaning cycles to remove

Are you talking about bare board cleanliness or assembly level cleanliness? Bare board cleanliness is still primarily measured by resistivity of solvent extract (ROSE) using instruments such as Omegameters and Zero Ions. What is considered as "acce

Of course there are solvents which are less harmful to the environment than others. The operative phrase is �less harmful�. As a rule, water-based chemistries are �greener� than solvents. There are some solvent blends designed for aqueous-based eq

We are changing over to a No-Clean paste soon and l was wondering how other people tackle the issue of stencil and PCB cleaning in high-volume production. The paste we are using is Cobar 325RX and its pretty sticky stuff let me tell you! Our proble

Regarding your customer suditor, it would have been nice if you said something like ... Routinely, our testing shall be less than 1.56 microgram/cm^2 NaCl equivalent ionic or ionizable flux residue, according to TM-650, Method 2.3.35 'Detection And
