We noticed unsufficient soldering on some 0805 chips located between pins from a plastic bloc connector . All chips are soldered with 45� angle. Flux quantity , preheating , contact time and PCB quality was checked. Do you know any international stan

Does any one know of a supplier high temperature PCB ink that can safely used between pads on an SMT connector. The product ideally should be screened on and have resistant to short exposure to heat from a selective lazer. Must be non-conductive and

Desco sells a strap monitoring system [50430 - SMARTLOG X3, 120V, DUAL FT PL, KEYPAD, BC READER, SOFTWARE, $2861.25] that provides for using of a barcode scanner to enter employee ID. Maybe they can give you a lead on ESD safe ID cards. We have no r

The last time I encountered dendrite growth, it was within a component package. I believe we were experiencing it within a crystal. The root cause was water intrusion during in line wash. The component was supposed to have been sealed and safe for

We always bake our loaded boards before any BGA rework is done. 12 to 16 hours at 100 c. We have had incidents in the past on loaded boards where 125 c has melted parts and the occasional low temp BGA trays. 100 c has proven safe for the past 10 y

How does one keep a pcb safe from ESD when applying an aerosol conformal coating on a flat surface? Even if you had an ESD mat to place the pcb on it would quickly be coated. The only thing I can think of is an ionizer. Does not the aerosol create a

It's a safe bet that your solder alloys will merge and form a proper solder connection at ~230*C for 15 to 20 seconds. At process conditions with less time and temperature, it's a lot of bla-bla-bla. In order to understand the quality of the solder c

have you tried using an ultrasonic cleaner? i heard this from a friend and told me about this option. although, you may have to use a solution with the machine. here's a link i saw before while researching on using ultrasonic cleaner for pcb: http:
