In answer to your questions. (1) pls can any body throw some light on the reflow profiling? Reflow profiling is the process of confirming that you PCB's that pass through your reflow oven are produced within specifications provided by solder paste

Today, I have just finished evaluating Kester's EM907 (SAC305)lead free solder paste and found that for our applications it performs as expected. End result that I am encouraged with the results that we got. The equipment that I used: An SMT2020 to

Read IPC-7530 "Guidelines for Temperature Profiling for Mass Soldering Processes (Reflow & Wave)". There is no advantage in dropping off much faster than 4�C/sec. In fact, you risk fracturing your newly formed solder connections due to board warping

Craig, it depend's n what you want to look at. In term's of te gran structure of the solder jont that's formed when the joint is cooling so you'd want to monitor the temperature drop from the peak or say 215dg C for ref down to probably about 150 an

DaveF is correct in saying that TAL is not the best metric to use in reflow soldering. That is why paste manufacturers give such a wide range; typically 30 to 120 seconds. The peak temperature is more important, especially in the mixed Pb and Pb-F

It is the solder ball that's usually encountered in a reflow process. It's just that, the paste did not wet well along the connector pins. Before reflow, the paste is actually at the tip of the connector, and stayed there and never went up to fill th

We process a double-side reflow board (10 ups). Chips and IC's on the bottom side while chips, IC's plus thru-hole connectors and IC sockets on top side (bottom side first then top side reflow). In the past, we were not encountering any soldering pro

How are you doing things now? I'm trying to picture a place going from no reflow oven to a reflow oven without also getting a screen printer at the same time. Are you now handsoldering parts on? With these batchs you plan on doing are you going to

| I need some advice concerning reflow of a BGA-292. Since I am not ready to change my entire process to no-clean, I decided to place the lone BGA-292 on a proto run using our BGA re-work station. The pcb is a moderately dense, single-sided, 8-laye

Hi Any, This is from an earlies thread "Solder Ball After Reflow Process". Date: August 16, 2006 01:52 PM Author: Russ Subject: Solder Ball After Reflow Process Oven settings are meaningless here. What does the board see? It is the paste we a
