Try baking the boards; you may have a moisture problem.

I persoanlly have noticed issue with either method, only time I run into issues with trays is when they get baked at too high of temp and warp. Russ

The easiest way to prove out the absorbtion theory is to weigh the parts before wash, after wash, and after baking. You probably want to do this with the bare parts in isolation as the fab will pick up considerable moisture. Differences in weight s

Hi Bill, You should try pre-baking any such old devices prior to using on SMT Reflow. Refering to MSL-type3 guidelines could help in your case.

I haven't, that is a good idea, I was reading about the chance of that earlier but I was not sure. The best way to eliminate is to bake the board?

Sirs, Please do me a favor to answer the following questions, thanks a million! 1. Will the baking of BGA or PCB cause more oxidation before the SMT process? 2. What is the acceptable Life Time of solderability at customer site? The time that the sol

It takes time for the moisture to penetrate into the body. I think the 5 years of ambient would be more the culprit than washing the boards. Especially since you are baking them after wash. Get a few of the ICs and put them loose on a board and put

First, we have never repackage devices, as you propose. Our schedule has us standing at Receiving like panting dogs waiting for the material required to jump the job, much less giving up the time and money to have parts repackaged. Second, fabricat

I can't seem to locate any information/concerns about moisture entrapment in IC packages on the promary side in a double sided SMT assembly using water soluable solder paste when soldering the second side. A typical process would assemble/reflow/cle

we are using polyimide boards 6 inches x 7 inches, 2.5mm thick, 12 to 14 layers, for aerospace industries. I am using a long bake of 12 hours at 70'C prior to manufacturing or exposure to elevated reflow and wave soldering temperature. If schedule i
