We have been having problems with solder paste balls around fine pitch ICs and have decided that cleaning the boards in an ultra sonic cleaner may reomove these solder balls. However we are worried that the ultrasonic cleaning process may damage the

My suggestion is to conduct a Design For Manufacturing (DFM)study on the assembly in question. Pay particular attention to the pad sizes, component lead dimensions and satisfy yourself that those two factors are correct. Given that pads match compone

i would like to request some advice on manually dispensing paste for super fine pitch components. first some background. i am a small design house and specialize in sub-miniature prototypes for avionics. so far, i have mostly used stainless steel st

1.The Temperature on the pad is 247.C & also it is an lead free profile, the same profile we have used till last lot but we had obsereved this problem earlier to this current batch. 2. Both in Type3 & Type 4 paste we are using because of we are using

Problem: A SMT fine pitch or BGA component needs to be baked due to MS concerns and is needed in a hurry. In some cases the packaging will not allow a high temp/short duration bake. Production will not allow a low temp/long duration bake. If the part

Are your components not in JEDEC trays? We use Kostat trays and we can bake our parts at or up to 150C. What are your temperature requirements, and what are your parts currently being stored in or on? There are a slew of tray makers out there that

What temp. are you planning on baking them? If this is long term process I would recommend that you hav trays made out of an appropriate ESDS material that can withstand your bake temp (such as duropol)for your QFPs. You can have several patterns/pa

Hi, Depends on where in the world you're based, but in the UK you can pick up a decent Universal GSM1 for around �12K-�15K ($20K-$27K). We place BGA's, huge fine pitch IC's, 72mm connectors etc with no problem. I believe they do up to 100mm feeder

I have done this before, We print with a 5-6mil stencil and have had no problems with any underneath solder. If you are still nervous instead of removing from stencil use some 3 mil kapton tape or equivelant and tape off the BGA pads. This way the

Hi all, we have recently seen a design that consists off a QFP100, pitch at 25". Also in the centre of this footprint is a FBGA165 footprint, pad size .4mm @ 1mm pitch. We have been informed that we will fit the QFP. I want to remove the BGA pads fr
