Flux residue effects on circuit performance?

Electronics Forum | Sun Apr 28 07:34:34 EDT 2002 | hany_khoga

Dear Tom : I hope I �m not too late. We produce PC motherboards with some buses exceeding the speed of 100MHz . we use no clean flux and it is OK even with the residues you can see under a microscope. But according to our own experience through a mo

Some boards that are populated by one of our subcontractors are getting a white powdery residue forming on them. I think it is the non clean flux and process which they are using that is causing the problem. Their process is as follows. Flux is put i

Dear Sean Contrary to believe MOST formulators of No Clean fluxes or No Residue fluxes use organic acides that are in fact weak and benign. IF the residue was left on the board and you had a condensing atmosphere then you may see some issue with fal

simon- davef is on the right track. 1st year electronics courses teaches us that you should always check the power supply first. In this case, the power supply in question is not your power source but the regulated power within the unit. I suspect o

Try the following steps : FIRST CHECK THE ARCHIVE for further information, it WILL help you. Step One : What�s the chemical analysis of this white res? Obtain a sample. It could be tin, rosin, or something else??? Step Two : The fastest way I know

Looking at the original post, it seems that the white residue is formed on the board after wave soldering and becomes evident when it has been left standing for a while. From what I understand, it seems that the solids content of the "no clean" flux

Chen, It is always best to place one�s effort on determining the cause and content of the residue rather than trying to work around it. The first thing you must determine is the nature of the residue. Is it flux? In many instances, the residue is

Rocko: While you're rooting around with the cleaner to better understand the issues with your water supply, monitor the heaters of your cleaner. We've had instances were the heater control has created "white haze" problems. Are you sure the residue

Testing effect of non-clean flux residue on solder joints

Electronics Forum | Thu Nov 02 13:17:06 EDT 2017 | jardcrocker

Hi...i have a question. After you solder a circuit board, what do you wash the flux residue off with? I am hesitant to use water for fear of subsequent corrosion, and have no clue as to what kind of flux is in my solder wire. automated pcb assembly
