presently, the production facing this problem. We has couple of brd which is electroylic gold finishing with plug via. The brd has blister after the PCBA (in lead free temperature, 265 degree) Some time, bare brd already has the blisters. But most of

First, while black pad can be a problem with poorly controlled electroless gold [search SMTnet Archives for background], it is not a suffiecient reason to use electrolytic. It's the reason the supplier should fix their electroless gold process. Se

The blistering is around the plugging via. I can forward you the pic. For the plugging process, I'm not too sure how they plug. What is the correct practise for the plugging via. Now, what they did is. They will do a tenting process for both side.

From the pic, we see blistering, but none so close to via that we'd attribute the blistering to via, via plugging, or anything of the sort. When we see blisters like this, we think of a surface contaminant being present on the boards at the time of

If you define cycle time as the time it takes to complete one board it is a useless number. What you need to know is the time it takes to complete one board and start the next board. This means first fiducial on first board to first fiducial on th

My process guy told me that. Due to black spot issue, brd with BGA must use electrolytic finishing. And when we had this finishing with plug via, the blister issue pop out. My supplier claim that this is due to the plug via. Which I don't know how

I'm no guru, but I am among the best that my home state's gotta offer... :-) Anywho.. a Production Manager's definition of cycle time is the time Production Planning schedules the stockroom to start picking materials for the work order, to the time

Have something that should be standard but never is. Cycle time. Long story short. Customer buys system. 8 months later customer says system isn't working as should. Go onsite and find customers application is causing huge maintenance problems. Sol

Almost as crazy as using precision wood and paint brushes for high speed automation.
