| I'm looking into vision inspection equipment to automatically inspect SMD placement and solder joint quality. Does anyone have any recommendations or know of any commonly used equipment? Do other manufacturers use vision systems at their inspecti

Mark, We print and dispense with Amicon "D 125 F". Solvent used is Electrolube "SSS", which is also used for solder paste removal/pcb cleaning for misprints and rework both manually and ultrasonically. I like it - good stuff but at $25 AU per litre i

We've seen a number of 0603 parts not being marked, more and more often in the market. Unfortunately, we never narrowed it down to whether or not it was manufacturer related, or separate product lines within a single manufacturer that were available

Can anyone help to identify this little tan/brown colored pcb part? (The one labeled GND) I believe it's called an SMD ceramic capacitor but could certainly be incorrect. There don't appear to be any marking on it so beside the tan color, picture qu

Hello, I have recived from customer PCB where he found that big SMD electrolytic capacitor just fell off. I checked this boards (FR4 , Au/Ni coating). I noticed that all solder remained on the termination of capacitors and looks ok but on the boar

Hi All, I would like to ask some help from you. It would be very important for me to identify a bad IC. It is located in a 2,4GHz radio frequency receiver, maybe the IC is some kind of low noise amplifier, but I'm not sure about it. It has 5-pin, see
