J-STD-001C just requires that the area not be so dirty as to contaminate your product, tools, workspace, etc. If you start counting particles, you're into cleanroom territory. Do a search on ISO 14644-1 for specifics. Actually Wikipedia does a ni

Hello Steve: I work at Navico, a company that makes GPSs and Sonars among other products for recreational fishing. I want to know if our SMT, Thru-Hole and Final Assembly areas need to be in a cleanroom environment? I've worked in another companies

The use of booties isn't required per se, just considered a standard step necessary to reach the 10,000 target. You also need to vacuum (central vac system, NOT exhausting into the room) daily, mop weekly, have a one piece floor, blah, blah, blah....

We are using the new auto-dipping machine for LED solder dipping and dragging. The flux is water-soluble flux and the solder is 63/37 at 250 deg. C. Two weeks ago we exchanged the pot with new 63/37 solder. About a week, we found that the high level

First, responding to your question � Several things on copper dissolution in solder are: * A 50um copper wire will dissolve in 60Sn / 40Pb solder at: - 200�C solder in 55 seconds; - 250�C solder in 20 seconds; - 300�C solder in 5 seconds; - 350�C so

J Rose at EMPF says: The introduction of no-clean solder fluxes in electronics manufacturing has given rise to greater levels of solder balling simply because the opportunity to remove them in the wash process does not exist. They are typically cause

We are trying to establish requirements and process controls for completed, cleaned SMT assemblies. We have problems with our high impedance circuits (100 meg ohms) being affected by residue. Some boards require additional cleaning cycles to remove

We are a small start up. We will be buying a stenciling machine and semi automated pick and place. ( We have the oven) We are presently stenciling without any assit and loading leadless parts only(no fine pitch) by hand. We need to improve thrupu
