I agree with Wolfgang that a check list, like he proposes, is very useful in evaluating your ability to assemble products. No sense designing a 16 inch board if the throat of your wave is 15 inches. Taking a different tact � what if you define your

Eric: I�ll pass on the uV and ammonia, also. Thoughts are: 1 You�re correct that the temperature/humidity mix can be a big driver to latex peelable solder mask cure time, but don�t overlook material thickness. Dispensers put material in a very th

We have been experiencing intermittent problems with the solder masking bubbling up from the bottom side of the board, after wave soldering. Our board fabricator claims that none of his other customers are experiencing this problem, and that it is pr

Gentlemen, I too have been atacked by that "soldering to gold" and will add my 2 cents. I also had parts that would pop off the board when the fillet looked perfect. After lots of pain, experimentation, and sleepless nights, I solved it through a
