Good morning Dave, Here are some of my assumptions. Please correct me if I am wrong. 1. Mask opening. Due to mask to PCB misregistration mask is not always centered relative to pad center how is should be. Sometimes edge of the mask matches with ed

Hello all, I read about Steve's headache a few articles back and I'm really interested by his tip. However, I'm still wondering why square apertures release solder paste better than round ones. For the same volume of paste, the surface area of th

I'd recommend not using them, personally :) The long term reliability of the SMT joint is suspect, IMHO. I had them for an in-house manufactured bed-of-nails test fixture for testing somewhere north of 5000 units....after the first 100, we were rep

I admit, 16 mil QFP printing is very challenging but if all your control factors (print speed, etc...) are setup correctly (through DOE) extremely high yields can be achieved and more importantly a repeatable and robust product will be manufactured.
