| I know this topic has probably been talked about before...But I ran into a small situation where Solder Balls were appearing in large quantities on the PCB....the Problem has been isolated and taken care of, my question is, what are some good metho

| Yes l know this problem keeps cropping up on the forum but l've missed some of the follow-ups. | | Our problem is that the lifting only occurs on 3% of production so actually detecting an improvement is difficult. We're actually having to inspect

Nice to have you back on SMTnet. Some of the newer folk have missed-out on the solid contributions you�ve made to the Forum. The chicken wire cleaning basket was a classic!!! [It�s a shame that the folk at SMTnet can�t recover those files.] We bu

Hello everyone out there in the SMT world. I have a dilema I'm currently running a board that has 3 csp's with a .75 mm. ball pitch and .3mm ball size. And 2 qfp's-160. The stencil is 4 mils thick and I'm using a 63/37 solder paste. My reflow prof

| | | Dear All, | | | | | | We are having a big debate over what is the industry standard in DPPM on the wave sodlering process. is a DPPM of about 800 satisfactory. As per our big bosses it should not be more than 50 DPPM. Is the figure realistic

i have a problem with some units that had one capacitor only soldered in one side, the geometry of the capacitor is 0805, our product during his life suffer a lot of stress (due temperature or vibration), some of those units are already with the cost

Billy, I have to disagree with you. We inadvertently soldered a Pb BGA with SAC305 paste and then had it micro sectioned and spectrum analyzed. Imagine our surprise when we saw the spectrum analysis showed Pb. The micro sections showed none to ac

Does anyone know where to purchase 90/10 & Lead Free solder balls and kits for BGA Reballing? I'm having service problems with my current vendor who decided that they no longer wish to sell 90/10 balls, can't take in an order without a quote, and ca

| Recently, there has been an upsurge in the Pin Hole/Blow Hole problem in our wave soldering process. We are baking the PCBs for 2 Hrs. at 125 degree C. The Wave Soldering profile seems to be O.K. Still the problem is persistent. Can somebody hel

Hello Michael & All, Thanks for the feedback. Months ago we receive a number of reject concerning one of the 0805 & 0603 chip capacitor mising (with joint remain on pad)and seriously solder joint fracture. From there I had do some investigation
