At a previous employer, we made a wearable medical device. When a customer finished using the device, she/he returned it to the company. Then, the company refurbished the device and rented it to other customers. Before it could be refurbished, it ne

Solder Pastes are used particularly in the assembly of printed circuit boards (PCBs) for a wide variety of applications, including hand-held electronic devices such as smart phones and tablets, computer motherboards, consumer electronic products, net

Dave, We have very short runs (less than one hour). We have stencils all over the place waiting to be cleaned. It is too time consuming to scope each stencil to inspect for cleanliness. Do you know of any automated or scanning devices that can ra

Military is outside the scope of the directive. The RoHS directive is mainly focused on electronic equipment with a high potential to end up in the normal waste stream such as consumer products. The EU commission also knows that removing lead from a

| | I hear that there is a problem with using ceramic parts that are sizeable. Apparently, there is a mismatch in the Temperature Coefficient of Expansion between the FR4 and ceramic materials which causes the soldered erminations to weaken and event

Kevin, One point that I'd like to make is that in order to get an accurate reading of the solder joint temp's you need to have the thermocouple right at the ball/PCB interface. I'd recommend precision drilling a mechanical sample of the unpopulated P

The use of booties isn't required per se, just considered a standard step necessary to reach the 10,000 target. You also need to vacuum (central vac system, NOT exhausting into the room) daily, mop weekly, have a one piece floor, blah, blah, blah....
