Doug, Ooooooooo. You're correct Vinny has to be talking about Rogers teflon boards. Vinny, There are many different types of PTFE based products. Generally speaking, PTFE has a melting point of 620degF and withstands solder reflow and HASL proce

ENIG is a common solderability protection on BGA packages. Pd/Ni/Au while more expensive could have advantages over ENIG in the following area: * Allow both gold and aluminium wire bonding * Better solder resist compatibility (63�C max) * Might take

Thanks for the replys'. So are you saying that SMD adhesive contains a flux agent?, because at this point in the process the boards have no solder on them at all, it's all done at a solder bath after the chips have been bonded.

1. To protect the nickel and copper under gold plating from oxidization before soldering. Gold plating can extend the PCB self-life and improve the solderability for 2nd re-flow. 2. Provide a good bonding strength. For Chip on Board process that Gol

Thanks for cluing me into IPC-2221. Though the numbers they give seem to contradict what I have learned from people working with the materials. At least I now know where the guideline for a max of 30 microinches of gold for soldering comes from. But

We have found a significant number of PBGA problems associated with physical deformation of the package. Deformations such as dishing (potatoe chipping) and delamination under the die (popcorning). These can be detected by x-ray by the variation patt

Generally speaking with most electronic grade epoxies: 1. Cure time is a function of temperature. 2. Polymer bonds begin to quickly break down above certain temperatures (product specific). I believe aprox 170-180C. The strength of the bond de

I have lots of experience with thermosonic gold ball bonding. You can read the literature and you will probably find some papers that say you can do it. I have never been able to do it. We gold ball bond all day long with little problems at all bu
