3.3 Flux, stating within the paragraph that “… Type H or M fluxes shall not [D1, D2, D3] be used for tinning of stranded wires.” Once the wires are tinned and assembled to their respective terminations, be it either a terminal, or a printed circuit board, other approved fluxes can be used to make those connections

. We have experimented with many minor adjustments, yet this occasional problem continues. Do you have any suggestions? Answer : Based upon the warp and twist characteristics of the printed board laminate materials and the BGA, this could be a major starting point for investigating this condition

-distributed on the printed board pads. weld. Reflow soldering is to solder components to the PCB board, and reflow soldering is to mount components on the surface

: I’m not exactly sure of what you mean by flux exhaustion, however; my interpretation is, there wasn’t enough flux in the solder paste to prepare the pad/land area and have the molten solder flow over the complete pad or land area itself

– Layer assignment is critical for designing a printed circuit board that will function. Pads for SMD components must appear on the surface layer, though-hole components must have defined layer spans for holes, and silkscreen and mechanical outlines need to be defined in their own layers

: I have always had in the back of my head that burnt flux is a defect for all class 3 assemblies. Upon further review I have not been able to identify the specific section of the IPC-A-610F standard which identifies burnt flux as an acceptable or defect condition
