The real causes of microcracking are not normally due to pick and place - particularly if you are using a piece of equipment with vacuum pick up and release. The real cause of microcracking is due to thermal stresses on the die and the choice of the

Hi, We just had delivered one of these and it's incredible. It's an amazing machine, and watching it load such a large board totally accurately, from end to end is amazing. Apparently we took delivery of only the second machine to ship in the world

Mike - I'm not in the EMS business, but I suspect most of them are very reluctant to reveal much about their quoting process. You might want to try some of the third-party data suppliers like Ceeris (www.ceeris.com), and you can also check the C

In-Circuit Test is the best method for ensuring solder joint connections. It is a much more reliable than AOI. An ICT machine can ensure solder connections are made for array package devices such as BGA, PGA, etc... AOI is best for component I.D.- is

Our conformal coat area has recently requested changes to our bare board houses to perform a pumice scrub operation on the PWB prior to HASL plating and delivery to us. Our first lot received caused us to have void faults under multiple component ty
