Hi, blow holes / pin holes / holes in joints are usually a sign that there is excess moisture somewhere around the solder joint. Moisture can be in pcbs / components, so try drying them....a simple thing to do is pass a bare pcb throught your reflow

We work in a "low" volume high reliability house building mixed tech double sided multi layer CCA's for long lived space applications. Our present problem is inspection questioning every dimple/anomaly on every leadless part(we put passives only thr

Lucky guess, eh? [Sorry to blow your theory on bad parts] A 1000 of these boards on the line, ummm. Two ideas to consider: * Increase the conveyor angle [don't get carried away, just keep the angle below 8*]. * Balance the flow of solder so that th

I don't think you can find any specs on that. As long as a solder joint can not be broken by virtually "blowing over it" any reading on the UTS, or shear strength can be very confusing. You can specify, though that the assembly (joint) should withsta

Hello Sir. We also encountered the same pin-hole issue but there was around MLCC.I also looked for some information in technical report and internet, But i failed to get an answer. As you know this pin hole or blow hole is caused by the solder boilin

Hi , Looking at your photo....can I also see a hole in the middle of the joint on the chip component ? Maybe its not just a problem with th ejoint son diodes ? Did you also get mid chip solder balls on chips? If so, I'd almost guarantee the pcb has t

Hello all, We have resently run across a solder joint from a through hole part that looks to have a wrinkle effect (star look) from the wave? No pattern it just happens here and there, and some of the joints on the same row look smooth and good. Any

Hello! I've had the same problem about one Jear ago. We had exessive building of voids in the solder joints. I recomment to take a pincer to break off some of the components. If the solder joint is good, the copper pad will stay at the solder joint

The typical PIP process is incorporated into the surface mount process. This approach requires the following: The stencil will be designed so that the correct amount of solder paste can be printed onto the through-holes to form an acceptable joint

Hi J_Dub (Joe), Thanks for the input. Sounds like some fairly densely populated through hole assemblies. 100 solder joints per board is up to 50 parts per board (I know you may have DIP's so it could be less than 50). 24 boards in a panel x 50 par
