We still build a legacy product with a primitive backplane using silver plated fork terminals for outside world connections. After some 20 years of no problems the fork terminals on raw stock PCBs were black and almost unsolderable. Because of the

Watza HND? Izzat anutha those wacky Brit degrees? Why don't yins call 'em BS, like in the US? Tough call. Better for what? What is the difference between these degrees? Chicks always seem to dig guys in the band. Maybe music would work.

We have tested several that have come in to our facility and all the ones we have seen so far are ESD safe matierial (black). I'll take these over rubber bands any day!

Baking boards in a nonvalue added activity. Quit doing it!!! As a routine production activity, it is either: * Totally unnecessary ... OR * Band-aid to cover for problems in fabrication, purchasing, or storage methods. Search the fine SMTnet Archi

Hi, What would be the standard band width for Pb-free soldering? As per my knowledge this should be 3cm to 6cm. What is best?

They just make it look good, that's all. ESD flooring, heals straps and wrist bands have function, smocks do not.

I like this suggestion the best as a "band aid", check out some of the low tombstoning solder pastes. I've seen these work.

I checked it and there is no problem with the lubrication the cables are in good condition. The band feels a little loose I will try to make the adjustment to see if that is the problem.

Graphene could make the illusive terahertz laser possible circuit board, according to a recent report from the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter in Hamburg. Sources of terahertz radiation, such as that used by those securi
