Longer soak time and reflow time impact Solder on Au pad?

Electronics Forum | Thu Sep 07 10:03:30 EDT 2000 | KS Wong

Hello, I am looking for input on the 7 zone convectional reflow oven on the temperature profiling. I having a problem with the flux/solder spattering on the Au cotact fingers. I have ran some experiment with the soak time and reflow time. Anyway,

Maybe its not splatter, in my experience a sloppy operator can get paste on contacts and just one sphere can rune them and can look like splatter.

Sudden flux boil will cause splatter. More thorough drying or a slower intial ramp to allow drying to occur before a boil or "splatter" temperature is reached may aid your problem.

As per Travis's reply it could be something other than the reflow process. Another good one is if the printed PCB's have been cleaned down due to print misregistration etc.. If not properly controlled paste residues can remain distributed about the p

What is a soak test? Do you mean a recipe for removing moisture from a board?

Was it possible to calculate Soak Test Equivalent on PCBA? For example: Soak Test at 60C/80%RH equivalent to how many hour of test at 25C/60%RH ?

As long as you have a continuous profile with required soak and dwell periods, the zone lengths do not matter. For lead free, usually ramp to peak is preffered.that is with minimum soak (you can not avoid soak anyway. You can achieve the profiles irr

LSP is 'Long Soak Profile'. See http://www.aimsolder.com/tds/NC_297DX_Sn62_&_Sn63_Solder_Paste.pdf Looks like a variation of the RSS, with you guessed it a longer soak.

We don't know how to accelerate soak recipes. We'd suggest that you use the recipe for your product use environment that is suggested in SM-785 - Guidelines For Accelerated Reliability Testing Of SM Solder Attachments
