| | we have just started wave soldering passive SMT components and through hole. We are having trouble with voids on the SMT components. It is very random, but effects a lot of TSOT's. We are using an electrovert with a chip wave. Are there any o

| Has anybody had experience wavesoldering 1 watt 2512 resistor packages?? I know it can be done, but are there reliability issues? | | We are in the middle of a new product and the question was posed to me "Can we use 2512 1 watt resistors on the

Chrys: I have checked all the basic elements of Wave solder joint formation: fluxing, preheating, and lastly soldering. For checking the fluxer, i used a product from ECD that's very similar to what you desribed called the flux-o-meter. It did a

| Hi Folks, | This is my first surface mount board, so I asked our assembly house for some tips. They said only passives on the bottom side-preferably no smaller than 0805, 0603 only if I have to. I would think that an SOT-23 would be OK on the botto

| | | I was wanting to know if double sided reflow can be done with a metal plated BGA on topside. We would be running bottom side first. My boss seems to think the only way it can be done is by placing glue dots on the bottomside compoents becaus

Hi Dave! Yeah, they've been around a while, and they're pretty straight foward like you said. About the only things that I can think of that I've run across that causes problems with these guys is when they're used on the bottomside of the board

| Can anyone tell me if there is a reference for smt component height specs on the bottom side of a board, which will also go through wave soldering. A current design I am reviewing has tant caps(7343) and a crystal on the back side. Should I only b

We are running Clean process. solder beadings were found after the wash process. Weird eh!! It's true.. Details: 1)wash pressure ? No shadowing effects from high profile component. It also happened on the component's body of the 1210 & 0402 caps whi

I have some interesting problems on my hands that some of you may know the answers to. I am currently wave soldering a through hole connector to a rigidized flexible circuit. This is a compliant pin connector that is supposed to be pressed into a h
