I'm looking for test labs in Taiwan that are capable of performing ionic contamination testing on small to medium sized SMT boards. I'm interested in both ion chromatography and ROSE test methodologies. Is anyone aware of any labs performing contami

since IPC-J-STD-001 RevH obsoleted the 1.56ug/cm2 UCL of ionic contamination tester in testing using ROSE test, how do you define the acceptable limit per PCB assembly? thanks

Three popular methods: Resistivity of Solvent Extract (ROSE) Test Method IPC-TM-650 2.3.25: The ROSE test method is used as a process control tool to detect the presence of bulk ionics. The IPC upper limit is set at 10.0 *g/NaCl/in2. This test is p

Hi there - unfortunately, there are no good cleanliness specs available mainly because clealiness requirements are case sensitive - you should talk to Terry Munson at 765-457-8095 - he can definitely give you advice on Ion Chromatography, SIR, ROSE t

ROSE has the advantage in that it does have a specific acceptance criteria (J-STD-001), whereas the IC does not. ROSE allows the test to be run at ambient or at an elevated temp, IC requires the component/board/assembly to be "cooked" for 1 hour @ 8

Casimir: Let me expand on something that I said in my response to your thread on ionic testing. Generally, no-clean people don�t use ROSE testing as part of their process control, because the ROSE test is essentially washing your board in DI/IPA �

How does no-clean flux residues on a PCB assembly impact the ROSE testing? Does no-clean flux residues on the PCBA dissolve in solution of ROSE tester and increase ionic contaminants level in terms of NaCl per surface area? Is ROSE tester solution (a

Resistivity Of Solvent Extract [ROSE] is a bulk ion contamination [BIC] test method. It should thought of as a process control tool used to assess ionic contaminants. Don't consider it an acceptable tool for establishing 'GO-NOGO' limits. The stan

Graham: I agree. Very thorny. What is clean?? And how is that controlled?? Back 25 or so years ago, soldering was done with high solids rosin fluxes. The issue with cleanliness was ionic contamination. The US military and others set a fairly a

An ionic contamination tester should meet industrial cleanliness specifications including MIL-STD-2000A, MIL-P-28809, J-STD-001 and Resistivity of Solvent Extract (ROSE) Test Method IPC-TM-650 2.3.25
