With some help from our good Friends at Agilent Technologies our RF Lab includes testing up to 100GHz. Equipment includes Vector network analyzer, signal analyzer, dual channel power meter, noise filter meter, advanced impedance analyzer (including

Hi, We are using mixed technology in our PCBA. Would like to know whether there is any criteria governing/guiding the use of mixed technology in such aspects as: 1. Some SMDs cannot be used in some kind of PCB materials such as FR1? 2. Some SMDs are

You are correct about a TCE [CTE] mismatch issues in ceramic packages. The coefficient of thermal expansion [ppm/�C] of major ceramic package elements are: * Silicon - 3 * Standard 92% alumina ceramic � 6.5 * FR4 board � 18-20 Several points are: *

I need some input on what good solder thieves dimensions should be. I am limited to solving my bridging problem with solder thieves; all process/wave variables have been adjusted to try to solve this problem. There are several of these connectors on

We design a broad range of DC/DC power supplies for various telecom, internet, and computor applications and have been succesfully using intrusive reflow for ~7 years now. Our pcbs range from 0.065 to 0.090 in thickness and are moslty dense 4 to 8 la

If you are running FR4 PCBs and not something exotic like Kapton flex circuits, I would go with the Dek 265 any day of the week. You will find that Dek supports the fully automatic printer much better than the semiautomatic printers like the 260, 24

Hi folks, thanks for all the tips. We have run our first batch of these flexi boards now. I had the PCB suppliers make me some 1.6mm FR4 carriers to lay the boards on to carry them through the process. (1 flat & 1 with cutouts for the second side)

It depends on the laminate but a PWB is like any other MSL component. Some fab shops are only waranting standard FR4 laminates for 45-60 days when processed at lead free temperatures. The best thing I can say is to try some weight gain/loss experim
