Would YOU accept this PCB ???

Chunks... You are pretty damn awesome! Anyways, in regards to the original thread, we do get good boards from china as well, but we have had issues with stack-up tolerances and even mouse bite (drilled break away) tabs. Not to long ago, we left t

ict nail for double sided reflow

Electronics Forum | Tue Jul 18 17:47:02 EDT 2000 | bluto

What kind of ict nail should we use when testing a board that does not go through wave solder? There is no dome shape for our nails to "bite" into, and we are having problems.

If you go with tabs/mouse bites, both FKN and Cab make simple pneumatic shears for removing the tabs. For low to moderate volumes, they're very cost effective. MikeMcM

Glue & Paste Printing on Same side of the PCB

OK, I'll bite. How you can set a stencil down on a printed board and run a squeegee across it (even if it's a proflow head, it's still a squeegee, right?) without disturbing the printed paste?

AIM, KESTER, OR INDIUM PASTE PREFERRED?

What is up with Indium 5.1 lately. Has Indium lost the recipe. The Lead free products from Indium used to kick ass, now they are biting mine. I'm looking at Aim 254 and Senju

Solder Balls-No Clean Paste

So with your mounting frustration in your inability to zero-in on the factors that drive your solder balling, are you thinking that maybe you need to bite the bullet and design a experimental study to help isolate the key drivers to your solder balli

Depanel thin board

Electronics Forum | Fri May 29 07:17:30 EDT 2015 | kkay

We have a small board about 1" by .5" and it is .012" thick. It is in a 50 up panel. We have tried rat bites and v-score and we keep seeing delamination around the edges. Anyone have experience depaneling boards this thin?

Depaneling method

Electronics Forum | Thu Apr 14 14:16:22 EDT 2016 | joelperez

Has anyone use both methods of depaneling on PCB breaktabs? meaning v-score at the edge of the pcb and mouse bites on the opposite side of the tab (break out panel)? Thanks

Has anyone done breakaway tabs with v-score on both sides instead of mouse-bites?

Could always get a laser cutter to de-panelize with. I've always wanted one, personally...but, haven't been able to cost justify it. ..rob

Cracks other than MLCC

I have seen resistors cracked during placement. The part was programmed incorrectly and the nozzle pushed down on the part too hard. I do not remember seeing any cracked during depanelization. Nibblers can cause damage if they are on the bottom and
