Thanks Russ I must have caught you on a good day I'm not used to see you agree with me. Just kidding (couldn't resist)

What about electo migration? I had (what apears to be) the exact same problem you describe. X-ray and ICT fails to detect micro shorts. However, in our test, the bench functional test would show a current overload. In some cases the electro migrti

Hi Y'all It would be valuable to the users of this forum to get a response from the original poster about his/her findings and solutions. It usually starts with the post of a problem, then opinions and experiences get exchanged but we never see a co

the time between SMT & wave should be as short as possible but at a max it is controlled by strictest MSD part, so if you have a part with only a 48hr MSL window then it needs to be with the 48hrs. Can you post images of what you are getting? It may

I have a problem recently to qualify QFN package on solder joint reliability. The pcb thickness stated in IPC-9701 is 2.35mm but from the in-house test, QFN surface mount on 2.35mm thickness PCB board have a short cycle to failure due to higher CTE m

I'm having shorts appear on my QFN packages between pins, usually only after a week or so of power-on operation. The shorts are 1K and slowly down to hard shorts over time. Typically a defective part will have failures on multiple pins. I tried havi

Have you ever heard of "Solder Mask Defined Thermal Pads"? I wrote a short blurb on this here - https://www.pcblibraries.com/forum/ipc7093a-btc-qfn-solder-mask-defined-thermal-pad_topic2154.html This technology saves fabrication costs by not havi

We will try both the solder mask and the .001" Kapton and see where we end up with each. This is a fine pitch dual row QFN and we cannot afford too much paste on the .004" stencil we are using. We have experienced shorting in the past with .005" sten

Hello, why focuss only on the printer and the paste, maybe the problem isn't there, maybe the problem is in the oven, is the component a havy one? because leadfree solder can't lift as mutch as a leadcontaining solder. regards Bart
