Hi Chris, We use MPM's, where you can set the paste inspection to look at whatever you want it to (remember this does slow cycle time down) and we swear by them. However I have also met many happy DEK users who believe their machines are equally as

So for your SMT1/SMT2/PTH boards, you have poor solderability during SMT2. [Even if you have no SMT2 and only ST1/PTH, our answer is the same.] We assume this occurs on one board part number only. We guess that your bare boards have insufficient gol

have you had any reduction in aperture size though, we generally use a 6 mil stencil thickness with a 10% aperture size reduction for chip components and leaded components ( SOIC - QFP ) and a 1:1 ratio for BGA components without any problems.

can some one give me some suggestion to solve the problem. we are using cooksun/alphametal rma9086 paste for our screenprinting. after the reflow we see lot of solder ball on the board. we have maintained the exact profile given by the manufacurer. w

How to avoid /reduce warpage in long length PCB & > _1.6MM THICK PCB. You need to put it in a fixture or pallet to run it in the reflow oven, most common material use here is durostone for the pallets that we run in the reflow oven, we use Durosto

I think the oxidation on the pad happens easily but do not on Au plated pad.The reason may be caused by improper cleaning or Au plating thickness in plating process. But,before suspecting the pcb board, you need to check your process or used material

0.5um(Ni~6.5um) after reflow(data taken in 48hrs).But after performing temperature cycle test ,the former aging rate(from the shear strength ) seems faster than the latter.Why!?Someone call this the 'precipitation hardness',but what actually is it! A

Let�s be basic. The two most common causes of BGA opens that we talk about here are: 1 Gold thickness and 2 Black pad. Given the thickness of gold that you talking about, it�s reasonable to consider thickness as the first alternative to investigat

Hi Any, This is from an earlies thread "Solder Ball After Reflow Process". Date: August 16, 2006 01:52 PM Author: Russ Subject: Solder Ball After Reflow Process Oven settings are meaningless here. What does the board see? It is the paste we a

Please check with Fab house, what is the thickness of the immersion gold if the gold thicknesss is less than say 2.5 micron, you will found dewetting or open. It is recommend the gold thickness is around 5 micron. Good Luck Dason
