Could you please tell what are the current avaliable standards, if any (BSI/IPC) for a measurement value on the mechanical pull strength on SMT IC leads after reflow. Thanks in advance, Jack.

recently I met one very interesting issue with my board and connector. substrate of the board is copper with immersion silver, pad size is about 3x1mm. we print lead-free paste on the pad, then put the connector on the paste. The board was reflowed u

First as a nit, your �substrate� is probably NOT copper. It�s probably FR4 fiberglass/epoxy. Substrate. Base Material. A supporting insulating material upon which parts, components, and elements are attached. Second, enough of that, on to your i

We have some no sticks, but that is actually a good thing because we have NSD. During process control audits we found that pull strengths to the board dropped off. We build a military application that requires higher bond strenghts. Low pull streg

Questions are: * Is the problem 'wire bonds that don't stick' or 'wire bonds that fall or break off later'? * What materials are you working with? * What is your working time after plasma clean? * What does surface analysis tell you about surface con

There maybe multiple drivers to your problems. * First, decreasing bond quality with time indicates a plating issue. What's the actual thickness of your gold and nickel on the pads? * Second, the no-sticks indicate contamination. If it's organic, p
