There must be discussions about this on SMTnet but I have yet to find them. I would like to hear from all you smart people about running LF and PB BGA�s on the same board using 63/37 solder. If you run your profile up to peak at around 225C +/- (nitr

Do you have any experience with flip chip applications using lead-free solder, and specifically do you have any information revealing how the process parameters for standard air reflow atmosphere can be modified to match the results for solder reflow

Is there a difference between the Nitrogen cabinet vs Dry cabinet ? How does this helps in creating safe environment for MSD storage. I felt puzzled when my customer rejected me coz' I'm using the Nitrogen cabinet instead of dry cabinet. Except for t

The customer said " The Nitrogen PPM is questionable". LIke what I said, as long as I have met the 10% RH, it should be OK, rite ? thx

Good question. What did your customer say?

Rite. Moisture, not N2, in the air is the issue.

Has there been a definite date for the total move over to lead free? Will it be 2004 or 2008. Also is there a direct replacement for leaded solder, I have read various articles on numerous alloys suggested for the switch, such as bismuth, tin, copper

Truthfully, there are pro's and con's for both technologies. (put cost of ownership aside for one moment) Nitrogen won't dry humidified components as rapidly as a desiccant dry box. I'm talking about a self regenerating dry box that uses molecular s

On an assembly reflowed in air saw the same thing: 0201's with a grainular solder joint, but 0402's and above with perfectly formed joints. Reflow profile all within acceptable tolerances. Reflowing in nitrogen solves this problem, but increases t
