Eric, You've got a Fuji FHP? WOW! It still runs even! That was the first fine pitch machine I ever worked with, along with the FEP's and CP-2's. Unless Fuji has changed the machine software, I don't know what he may be talking about. They

Well, reflow certainly would increase your preheat, wouldn�t it? On the other hand, some PTH [and SMT] components cannot bear the heat of a reflow oven. Some boards will never see proper barrel fill, because of either: * Design of the board. * Sl

We have two E5's, and like them a lot. If money were easier to come by we'd buy one more. Tech. support is excellent, print quality is good (I only have semi-auto clamshell machine prints to compare them to, and it's no comparison). They don't offe

Silkscreening is falling out of favor, as it should. SMT IC devices can have their "pin one" solder lands indicated by a round mark, like a fiducial or a "1" mark, both made from either the copper clad PWB material or silkscreened. I have seen some w

We are going to begin using a 64 pin 10mm QFP with 0.5mm lead pitch. I was recently asked if we need to purchase our PCB with E3 coating instead of tinned pads when using the .5 pitch. The concept being suggested is that the E3 coating will give us b

Okay, I'm here in Colorado and I used indium 92J and loved it. My test dept. hated it! It leaves a pretty large amount of residue that apparently increased the pin maintenance. The company I worked for actually switched from this paste to another b
