Simple process - we use similar Kester solder brands of "no clean" low residue solder wick to clean our pads, then brush with isopropyl, and apply Kesters brand of tacky flux under a Leica 6x microscope. We do this on 7x7mm and 9x9mm packages. This w

| A user of one of our components exceeded the floor life of some plastic BGA components. They did do a pre-bake prior to SMT reflow but only 72 hrs at 40C and not the recommended 12 hours at 125C. I've recommended accoustic microscopy to look for po

We have a new assembly with bottom side components, and all the chip caps and resistors are 0603s. The dog boned shape of the caps necessitates a pretty big (and tall) dot to hold them still during placement, and when they get placed the dot squishe

.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

Deja vu! When I read your response I turned around to see if you standing behind me listening to our problem. We currently make about 50 different boards all using no-clean that have no problems, yet this newest boards has a couple of issues that eng
