Hello all, Been doing some comparisons on joints made using the soldering iron versus reflowed solder paste (on a QFP package). The difference is quite significant: the joints made by the soldering iron are inconsistent and in many cases not filled

one more thought on this, When these boards are built new do we not have solder paste on the ground pad and then reflow? Has this caused any misregistration for you? I am assuming that you are not pasting the leads with the ground pad correct? I

I have some fine pitch QFP's to rework with our smt rework system (forced air). There are no intitial concerns in removing the component (we havent actually begun the rework process) however, installing a new chip presents a problem. The QFP has

Sure, it�s fine to use the proper amount of flux and no solder when reworking BGA. Recognize that these new solder connections have less metal and a lower standoff than similar BGA solder connections that have not been reworked. This undoubtedly

Has anybody successfully used an automated dispensing system to put solder paste dots on .5 mm pitch pads?? I need to replace some Meritec tsop sockets and I don't want to use the single site stencils for .5 mm parts.

Hi, I am new in this industry and have purchased a beguinner unut, a 3-in-1 solder, desolder, hot air station. Currently I work on cellphone mainboards. At the moment I only replace single large chips on the mainboard. I would like to be able to repl

Hi, I am located in Auburn Mass (USA) right near Worcester. Now I noticed you talked about micro stencil for a populated PCB, would I need one? Or could I use a syringe to lay a tiny dot of paste since im only replacing a chip or 2 (at the moment)? I

I'm in North Attleboro, small world. To answer your question, you can deposit small dots of paste with a syringe. Kind of tricky work, and there are small stencil soluions out there fairly inexpensively. See http://www.minimicrostencil.com/ (I do
