Steve, I have done countless board profiling and oven reflow profiles. Here are the critical factors on you need to address. What is your board surface finish, if it is something like an OSP it will need a good amount of an active (aqueous) flux to

Bryan, 0402's tombstonning isn't that uncommon and usually the 1st reaction is alway's the pad size aint right. If you've followed the IPC guidline's normally you should be fine but I'd double check the component supplier's spec's as well. brian's p

25 PPM)! | | | | 1. Is there a better process to solder the leads of QFP's with lifted "minute" lifted leads still having a realiable solder joints? | | | | 2. Or has anybody tried modifying solder pads and use thicker solder paste deposit to compe

| | | Your problem may be related to silver migration (leaching) into the solder. I had what seems to be a similar problem. The solution was using solder with 2% silver content. See these pages for a bit more information: | | | | http://www.ferr

Transient Voltage Suppressors

AVX and a few other companies make these chip transient voltage suppressors (TVS) parts that are a real *PAIN* to use. According to AVX: "Due to the semiconducting nature of the doped Zinc Oxide (ZnO) ceramic material, SMT TransGuards are no

.025" pitch so the only problem we run into is too much HASL on the adhesive side causing improper glue dispense. | As Earl keeps saying HASL thickness is hard to impossible to control. I think we need to look hard at OSP's again but then you get in

| Hi, | There has been a lot of disputes in our company | about changing present HASL to another Finishing | which can provide more flatter pad surface in fine | pitch applications. ( perhaps Ni/Au, OSP ) | The target is to reduce solder defects, t

| We are having some difficulty soldering a 240 pin Altera device. We use Alpha WS-609, a very generic profile for that solder paste, and a 6 mil stencil with laser cut apertures (1:1 ratio). This is a 20 mil pitch device (aperture size is 10 mils X
