I am supposed to heatsink a Temp sensor with leads .9-1.1mm(.035--43"). I have found on our engineering units that the smallest heat sink I have found commercially is still too heavy for the leads and unless the operators use exxxxtreme care the wei

| Does anyone have experience with placing heat sinks on BGAs? I have limited experience with PSA (pressure sensitive adhesives)heat sinks, and am interested with the possibility of a clip-on device. I am specifically concerned with ease of assembl

Se�or Tech Possibilities are: * The vent on the drain line is blocked. Generally when this happens, the blockage, like come critter building a nest in the pipe, is found on the roof. In this case, the smell would be constant. * Somewhere, the drai

Dear all, Recently, we run 2 models with heat sink attachment on top of this BGA(on top of this BGA, there is flip chip attached at the center of the BGA). Hence, the center of the BGA is higher than corner/side. We used conventional way to attach

We're looking at a new assembly that will require an SMT heat sink. Can anyone recommend potential vendors for this part? It is new to us, so we're having to start from scratch. Thanks John

Hi. We are designing in a 128 pin LQFP that has a heat sink in the center of the package. The size of this is 7.44 by 7.55 mm. Can anyone recommend what pad size should be on the board for this? How about stencil aperture/pattern? Thanks, Mike.

That's how it's supposed to work, but is working correctly on the components that are loosing heat sinks for you? We have two choices: * Poor solderability of either the component or the heat sink ... OR * Wrong solder preform material

Dear Colleagues, I am evaluating the Linear Tech. Corp. LTC1733 MSE Package for use in our SMT Dept.. For this application I will need to consider the possibility that we will be required to repair these devices after some time in the field. My probl
