Dear members, Recently we have found that solder mask thickness variation could lead to solder balling under QFN packages for a high reliability device. Is there any industry proven method for solder mask thickness checking? Any equipment or any me

Hi Dave, Thank you for the input. We have completely checked the whole process and solder mask thickness is the only thing that might impact. I wonder whether you might know chemical solutions capable to dissolve solder mask? Regards, Pavel

Hi Pavel here in Poland interflux sells a product C8 who can remowe the solder mask, no disolve. It is a high alcalin product with other stuff, you can ask to vsd@interflux.pl jean vadim

We have an AUREL CS1222 machine to measure the thickness of the solder paste deposited on a bare board by a stencil printer. This device has a laser beam that has to be put on the pad where you want to measure the solder paste thickness. The measure

Boots: Here's several methods for guessing at the amount of solder on your connection: * First, 'Down & Dirty' ** Assume that the solder is flat, which is reasonable since it's 'flattened' by the component package ** Assume 100% paste transfer from t

I have problem about glue printing measurement ,anybody has process of glue printing . How do you measure? as I know "push test" is the method for testing the strength of connection of component and board but I don't have specification of testing for

Boca, Dave Sorry, but I cannot let this go. I'll go along with you that, at the time that the Montreal Protocol was initially signed (September 1987), there was no scientific proof that CFCs etc. were causing ozone depletion. There was, however, ve
