Here's two choices. 1 Before accepting a lot of boards from your supplier: * Print some paste on a board * Reflow the paste * Inspect the quality of the solder connection * Make a decision on accpting the board based on that observation. 2 Have yo

I recently encountered reflow soldering defects on a pair diode package, the smd pad had a green contamination, I'm convinced that this is not oxidation. The no-solder condition appears to be caused by a sloppy soldermask process, although over the y

I think you're on the right track Paul. You didn't mention what type of solder mask was used but I'll presume that it was LPI (liquid photo imagable). If development of the image is incomplete some mask can remain where it is unwanted. Sometimes im

We work in a "low" volume high reliability house building mixed tech double sided multi layer CCA's for long lived space applications. Our present problem is inspection questioning every dimple/anomaly on every leadless part(we put passives only thr

I've been the AOI programmer for around 5 years now. The equipment I use is the Orbotech VT-9300 & VT-9500 systems. The programming isn't too difficult, mostly Grey-scale shadow measurement through application algorithms. Three levels of lighting an

Fellows, We are considering getting an AOI machine to inspect boards that our vendors are giving us (we outsource the assembly of PCBAs). We have low volumes of boards, but every time a defect does slip by our human inspectors, it causes a lot of

I'd like someone gives me a tip for elemating of voids in the mico BGA solder joint and the method of inspection of them, very exactly.

Don't have any specific links to papers and articles. Try searching on the IPC.org (plus APEX show http://www.goapex.org) and SMTA.org web sites. Any papers and articles on the process from equipment mfg.'s should be taken with a grain of salt. Sold

Yes, there is a limitation with Transmission X-ray on double-side SMT boards, ie.: back-to-back solder joints, components on bttom side over a solder joint.
