IPC-2222 - Sectional Design Standard For Printed Board For Organic Printed Boards, Table 9-3 � Plated Through Hole Diameter To Lead Diameter Relationships will give you the standard information you require. If we can�t get proper hole fill after try

Dave: I haven't located something to support your contention, yet, and I'm not going to comment on the factors that drive reliability beyond component selection, because I know that you've got some sweaty-palmed sales type wringing his hands waiting

David I have recently taken the IPC-A-610B instructors course and according to the teacher the revised addtion is suppose to be 50 percent fill in plated thru holes

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

I know this is going to sound rather sad, but we have been using a Capton tape for years that contains silicone to mask large components as they go over the wave, as well as large plated holes on the pcb. It was handed down for years as accepted prac

Bill, We do solderpaste reflow on through-hole here every day on plated-thru-holes. We do it on connectors only. It is a reliable process. We use no special profile. The stencil apertures must be modified for this process. Check out the IPC-7525 "St

Hi all, We have an assembly which features non-plated tooling holes used to align the board in a bed of nails style test fixture. This assembly is rather small, and as such, the test points are pretty small as well. We have found that some variation

| Hello everybody. | Remember I posted some questions on the smtnet regarding placing the thru hole connector using paste and reflow(pin in hole). I have able to accomplish the process succcesfully.....but I have a problem. The boards are failing at

As my fellow members are saying this is a bad mfg process, you need to talk to your supplier to see if theres something contaminating the ENIG plating, this is a very critical issue you must act on it before some problems arise in the field where can

Dennis: Direct metalization is more of an European phenomena than a US one. Not to say that good things don�t come out of Europe. As background: Direct Metallization. In circuit board fabrication, an alternative to electroless plating makes the
