Dave, I�m talking about the 75% vertical fill of solder IPC 6.3 criteria (B), and 6.3.1 Fig 6-5. I also referred to the annular ring of the Plated-Through-Hole, being coated with solder mask. Semantics, yes I did refer to the Plated-Through-Hole (Sup

Whoa, I have (for a long time) been under the impression that lead can only be absorbed via the mucus membranes, not through skin as in the hands. Did I miss something?? Not that I behave would much differently, other than donning gloves whenever I

AF: Unfortunately, there is no "acceptable number of cycles" either in air-to-air and one liquid-liquid thermocycling, nor interconnect stress testing. There can be a "minimum threshold" that would assure no failures as the result of the assembly p

GT 8 years ago every board saw "touchup". Touch was done to fix boards to conform to A-610. Now A-610 allows less than complete hole fill. Our operators were totally freaking nuts about touching boards. They touched each others touch and on and o

| Hello all, | | Are BGA's easy to develope shorts? If a process is stable and all of a sudden you get BGA's shorting out on you, what might be problems? | | We've checked our solder paste amount, and we've rechecked our reflow profiles and nothin

Hi Walter, Do you refer to a sprayfluxer operation? The problem seems to be a parameter setting issue. 1. Ensure the wide angle spray reaches PCB with optimum jet pressure. You could pass a glass plate to understand flux coverage and view Jet pressur

Is that no solder on the left hand pins in the picture? If so, it could be a directional thing. Have you tried turning the board 90º or 180º from the current direction of travel? Not a huge fan of wave solder for SMT components personally, though,

Looking for some welcome advise again folks. We are currently using a reflow profiling software package which requires passing a data logging unit through the oven attached via thermocouples to a populated 'dummy' PCB. The problem is we have a very

Please help, Engineering has come to me with a crazy idea of putting vias straight through 0805 pads due to limited board space. I was wondering if this has ever been attempted by anyone and if it works. I'm assuming it will have negative affe
