Sounds like you are thinking correctly. I'd guess your fab has gotten "smart" and changed your bare board, as you suggest. So, you've got two choices: 1 Rework the QFP. 2 Remove the lower temperature PTH components and solder them to the board some

Mark, You've already received some good advice from the other posters. The one thing I would add is that even if you solve your printing issues on this type of part, the relative small quantity of paste may be prone to soldering problems. Ever s

Does alloy 42 lead frame on a QFP100 make lack of coplanarity (let's say 2 mils), a critical factor to have non-wetted leads? Lead coating is tin lead 90/10. afm

Chris: Typical non-wetting causes are: * Poorly controlled soldering process * Incorrect material * Surface contamination * Insufficient preheat * Misapplied solder mask * Shadowing Without intending to insult you, all of the causes of non-w

Hi mate, no complete info given from what i see, so just some humble comments, mayhaps you review : 1) PCB pad finishing - Copper+nickle plated? coz if so, nickle is a KILLER to good solder wetting. what we did back here, was to HAL coat the nickle

Chris: You can have more than "one question!!!" Anyhow, yes crappy solder paste can cause non-wetting, but before you go there understand why the paste is wetting some surfaces, but not others. Ta Dave F

All, Has there been any finding from the component point of view in terms of non wets after reflow and if yes, can anyone share what was improved on the component to reduce the non wet defective levels. What would be the contribution from the compon

anyone experience to solve the non-wetting on Microleadframe packages component terminal sides. 1)I test the components solderbility in dip and look test, in solder pot at 240 deg C,the wetting on the sides is ok. but I run on mass production in refl

Questions are: * Do not judge the quality of a solder connection by the shineyness or color of the solder connection. Do you have smooth and unform flow, no pitting, and good wetting to the lead and the pad? * What is the temperature of the leads of
