Electronics Forum | Thu Dec 16 04:14:16 EST 2010 | kemasta

Hi, I am new in this industrial. I learnt that PCB may absorb moisture and eventually caused delaminate after heat apply on it (reflow or wave). But I don't quite understand, if the PCB was keep in sealed bubble bag, and with the humidity control wit

Although we do not have any soldering issues with our OSP PCB's, I am trying to establish clear rules with regards pcb storage and shelf life. Our PCB's are supplied in metalised moisture barrier bags but without desicant, our current rules as follow

Suppliers have improved the utility and quality of OSP [organic solderability preservative] solderable surface protection over the years. Be cautious reading too much into older SMTnet [and web in general] conversations about handling OSP. When prop

Packing material, the right track ?

Standard ESD bags aren't a vapor barrier, though, are they? Maybe you can get them spec'd that way, I dunno. You might have to get poly/foil bags and heat seal 'em. Fill 'em with nitrogen first, then suck most of it back out just for insurance. Don

When to trash the solder paste

Depends on the manufacturer of the paste... Rosin-based-flux solder paste usually takes 12-24hr's to fully oxidize with open containers. Water-based flux usually is 3-12hr's, but some have a 24hr open container shelf life... However, uncertain unt
