Our SMT production and storage area is air-conditioned, constant temperature is maintained but the humidity is not controlled , the raw SMT material is stored in a "Drier" cabinet, but since we assemble hybrid SMT and thru-hole PCB assemblies, the SM

Handling requirements of all classifications of moisture sensitive devices is found in J-STD-033. It really isn't an issue for most parts unless they're going to reach reflow temperature again, which is unlikely unless you're removing a nearby compo

I'm trying to find information/articles describing the effects of temp and humidity on solder paste. Just recently we have gone through a change outside temperature and humdidty and have notice solderabilty problems with smt boards.

OA pastes are more hydroscopic than NC pastes. Hydroscopic. The capacity of a material to absorb and retain moisture from the ambient air. Sometimes this is compounded if you remove paste from the frig and let it warm to room temperature, because

Hi All, Would just like to course through this concern on a product that we are contracted to assemble. It is mainly used for an automatic hand sanitizer dispensing product. By design there is a restrictive value of current that it needs to dissipat

IPC has updated assembly standards for IPC A-610 and IPC JSTD-001 making them easier to use and adding information in areas that have evolved. Both IPC J-STD-001E and IPC-A-610E have also been more closely linked to eliminating the differences that c

The attached images appear to be a result of a touchup process. We believe that this is not a fracture, but more of a condition where the solder touchup process did not completely flow the solder. Is this acceptable per J-STD-001 and IPC-A-610 Class
