Hey Charles!!! Where in earthly heaven did you get a TO263 with "large solderable tab (approx 8mm square) on the back and 5 leads"? All the TO263s that�ve reached-up and smacked me have been "TO220s" with a modified tab and three leads that are f

It looks like a giant dpak device but with 5 leads. The problem is that on approx 3% of our boards one more pins are open circuit. It appears that the pins are not in contact with the pads. Board is HASL finish IR oven Paste Koki 953i. If you have a

Hi Arnold, Some wave solder machines have a preheat function, that raises the board temperature before soldering. Some transformers use single use thermal fuses/TCO's inside, that trip at a set value (in a range approx. 70 degrees C to 180 degrees

This one's got me stumped, so I thought I'd throw it out for discussion: I have a 20 pin SMT ribbon connector by Molex that I've been using for about a year without problem, but recently things aren't looking so good. The solder is pulled up off of
