We're not clear on what you seek. So, as a starting point for our discussion, we wouldn't get agitated if we saw "routine" coplanarity of 4 thou. For instance: Maximum Lead Coplanarity [Altera] Package||Acronym||Lead material||Finish||Maximum Lead

hi, I have a big problem with soldering uP QFP144 package.All components in PCB are small, only this chip is big and I can't make good temperature profile.Solder joints of other components are shining and with good wetting, but in QFP leads solder j

There is an auto teach of QFP component for CM402 wherein machine can auto recognize number of pins, pin pitch. Just make sure on your part data you have selected the right reference part (Ref: 171)for QFP. For manual component recog; 1. Set Comp si

As Wolfang says about slightly bent legs, handling is of the essence. Are these devices decanted into another tray for your machine. It may be worthwhile doing a "movement" chart for these components. Do not explain why or when you are doing it beca

For any rework machine a good optics system is important. A look-up look down is used for BGA components. 30X magnification is required for flip chip, MicroBGA and fine pitch QFP placement. Digital cameras are not required, CCD have a good enoug

I got one problem from my production line recently. One 0.5mm pitch QFP IC have been used on my PCBA. Actually, the defect was happened in randomly. Sometime, we got the fillet completely but sometime is not. The solder joint look like is good, but t

There is no "standard" or "procedure". Your customer is putting a requirement on you because this has probably lead to weak QFP solder joints breaking in the field or non-functioning units due to co-planar QFP legs. I�ve been there done that. Had

220 should be plenty although if they're lead free you might need a little more heat. Is it possible that you've got a paste volume issue (stencil design, clogged apertures), or maybe the footprint isn't right for the part? I had this same problem

Hello, I have a board that has been giving us problems for some time now. It is fairly well populated, mostly with IC's and SOT's on the topside. There is a Zilinx QFP160. This component does not reflow well. All of the other components look OK. A t
