If you decide on an epoxy floor, make sure you use a contractor that is experienced with installing ESD epoxy floors. The epoxy needs to be continuously mixed to keep the media consistent throughout. We had a contractor who failed to do that, and wh

| | Has anyone had experience with placing BGA on gold plated boards. I thought I read a while ago there was a problem with embrittlment causing cracked joints. If anyone has experience with this your feedback would be great. | | Mike | Mike, | You

Jorge, The basic thumb rule to measure Adhesive Strength remains as bonded Chips at Post Reflow should not move around or misplace when Your Thumb Finger try to do so which called as Thumb Force Test. However as Dave stated, there are various Stre

| | | Hello, | | | | | | We are qualifying new sources of PWB vendors. We've got the first lot of "produciton" boards in and we want to put them through the paces before turing the vendors on. | | | | | | So far, the tests I can think of performin

We're testing this PCB in 40C 93RH to see if we get ECM or CAF. We have failure. I traced it back to the vias on the left (signal & gnd)if I can get the picture to load. We have not yet confirmed or denied CAF. I am wondering if I should be concer

Ouch! I thought that went away 12 years ago! Visual inspection to IPC standards should be used. Pulling and pushing leads is not even close to being consistent. I bet your customers or ISO auditors have never seen this practice. If they must pul

Ken you say reaching 218 to 221 C will give a homogenus solder ball. The pb free solder balls on the BGA reflow at 235 C to 238 C but I have seen when you combin to differnt types of solder say 63-37 and 10-90 you will atually lower the melting point

So...today, we were able to get rid of the z axis not mounted error. It looks like we did so by modifying the settings in axes location (matched them to the beam 1 settings). Now, when we try to lower the nozzles, we can hear a relay or switch clic

Scott: Sounds like fun: � Solder joint strength in pull/shear varies with lead geometry, solder volume, lead metal/metallization, and the test method. � Among things, IPC-TM-650 talks to getting pads off-of boards. For instance: Method 2.4.8 is for

| I saw the problem of void in solder bump or in lead less component or some BGA. But I didn't have standard specification of that void is accept or reject? Do any body have the better idea or suggestion of the criteria ? | | Thank you, | Wirat
