Hi Chuck, let�s say it the other way round. We use noclean since I can�t even remember without nitrogen and all of our subcons do with no known problems. The processes are adapted to it and no complaints are heard up to now. That is related to our pr

Gee Dave That's the first time I've ever seen myself listed for a quote! Brian, what your saying is on the whole right, on the surface of it the mask, as long as it's cured properlay shouldn't make a difference but I have to say that I've found so f

| I am wave soldering a single sided through hole PCB array with (6) .040" round diameter pins that sit .5" off the PCB, and .080" apart. The problem being experienced is that solderballs are appearing on the end of the pins. I have tried decreasin

| | | | | | Hello, | If you are using no-clean and they are entrapped in the flux it is also IPC accepted but i havent found a customer yet who agrees with that. Im sure you have checked your profile. I had the same problem with chip components but

We care currently running into problems during our plug via process: At the moment we plug prior to soldermask (LPISM) using epoxy resin - plugging takes place from the component side - however we are seeing solderballs after solder level.This is cau

Looks like (so far) we have a concensus. Follow the paste manufacturers guidelines on storage. Normally, refrigeration is required to achieve max shelf life between 3 and 6 months in original closed container. Water-wash pastes are much more active t

You're correct that a thicker solder deposit will make bridging on fine pitch devices a bigger risk. Another alternative could be to slightly over-print the pads (onto the soldermask) ala pin-in-paste process. Basically adding enough solder to fill

I'm working on a protobuild for a pcba. THis pcba uses double-reflow, paste-in-hole process. On bottom side there is a Ceramic BGA, size 35 X 35 mm, thickness 6mm, over 900 balls count (ball pitch 1mm)and it weighs a hefty 20 grams. Printing uses 6 m
