SMT device shelf Life

Electronics Forum | Wed Jun 25 11:53:01 EDT 2003 | gmurray

Does anyone have a listing of recommended usage requirements on SMT components. Can you use SMT resistors which are over 3 years old for example ? Can you use ICs which are not known to be moisture sensitive but which are over 5 years old.

A lot of it depends upon what the lead terminations are and the storage conditions. For example if they are tin you will run into trouble. We have used all types of parts that are all ages (We just started doing BGAs that are 5 years old.) I don't

Accelerated testing to Service life conversion

Electronics Forum | Mon Aug 06 12:30:51 EDT 2001 | Brad R.

I am having some SMT assemblies undergoing thermal shock testing per MIL-STD-883, Method 1011, Test Condition B. I was wondering if anyone has a chart, equation, article, etc. that will give me an idea of the service life of the assembly after it su

Regarding OSP PCBA shelf life.This is based on the thread (#73465 PCB SHELF LIFE AFTER FIRST REFLOW | 9 February, 2015)

Dear All, I have OSP finsh pcb on my production, the pcb thickness is 1.5mm and the product is one sideded pcba. After reflow process, Is there any specific time frame defined for smt completed OSP finish pcba before going for wave soldering proce

Soldering to brass?

Electronics Forum | Tue Aug 07 19:32:40 EDT 2007 | davef

Zinc from the brass diffuses into the solder and reacts with tin causing dezincification. Dezincification is a specific type of de-alloying, or selective, leaching corrosion of brass fittings. This type of corrosion selectively removes zinc from th

Hi there Siemens Valor Proceed Preparation is a alternative that I would say ticks your boxes as is more focused on PCBA NPI process , from Cad-Cam Data clean up SMT programming, Stencil Design, Assembly Panel Design, Test Engineering, DFA analysis

Baking prior to conformal coat

Hi Cecil, We using conformal coating in our manufacturing area, we did use to use Humiseal, others have been Bectron and Peters. We recentalt switched all lacquering to Peters, since it is lead free and it is a lot friendly than Humiseal. To answer

Re: Converting to 'No-Clean' process

Murad, I have just completed a switch over in our facility to no-clean. We used Alpha 609 and 857 paste and wave flux respectively. We currently use Alpha UP78 paste, NR330 wave flux, NR205 liquid flux for touchup and cleanline 7000 wire solder as

When to trash the solder paste

Electronics Forum | Fri Aug 03 14:44:36 EDT 2007 | rpadilla

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

omit stencil apertures to hand solder or paste, reflow then solder.

Electronics Forum | Tue Feb 25 06:06:11 EST 2020 | hexton

I am currently weighing up my options for resistors that will be fitted to a fully assembled PCB (PTH&SMT). Do I omit the stencil apertures leaving exposed pads (ENIG) so they can be hand soldered with fresh solder. Considering shelf life for soldera
