Thanks Dave, As always the best search engine! I have a hrd time finding what I need In the "government pages"

We agree Russ. The government information is very confusing. University types have the time, resources, and patience to figure that stuff-out [and hopefully the inclination to steer others in the correct direction].

I'm really wondering about the gloves and wipes. We also reclaim all metal and get paid but, we have to pay for the jars, wipes, tubes, etc... We always come out $ ahead so I'm really more curious than anything.

Hi all We recently have a problem with component in package 0805 (capasitor 100nF). I have noticed that after reflow soldering only one lead of the component is soldered. The second one is just laying on the PCB land. We use screen printing process

Greg: As we understand it, in your situation: * One 0805 lead solders to board properly * Another 0805 lead does not solder On the 0805 lead does not solder, there does the solder go? * On the pad * On the component lead A common solderability test

"And don't look for logic or consistancy in polital matters". No kidding? I am having a hard time trying to figure out how you go about determining your levels of waste and also where to find "hazardous material" classifications for my area. I am

How are Component manufactuers addressing the PB free solder inititive? Since I am told higher processing Temps will be required to reflow the pb-free alloy.

It does. I looked into the Cookson/P.C. kit, and it looks like a good deal. So, I'll go with that. (We're already running Pb free, but we'd like solid hard data for customers) Thanks all.

Yeah, that's what I'm doing now. I have it now peaking around 235, with about 70 sec. above 220C. (220C is the reflow temp, according to manufacturer. I've always used 217C for Pb free) Wish me luck. Thanks!

There are two profiles available for the Pb-free process: (1) RSS and (2) RTS. In your case, you should try a solder paste that supports RTS profiles. A minimum of 7 zone Refow Oven would be fine on the Pb-free process. However, you may still try by
