You wanted someone from Loctite to add their opinion on the matter. Our official statement on expired material is that after the expiration date we can not certify the performance and/or quality of the material. Although most likely the material is g

Well, the precision glass is for upward looking camera's. It essentially is a "perfect part". Vapor deposition lithography on glass (for Cte stability)....basically the part pattern (or part fids) is compared to its target location (same pattern on

Manufacturers of non hermetic SMT components have to test their devices as per IPC JEDEC 20C to check their reflow and moisture sensitivity. In this spec they pass them through reflow 3 times, then check them for damage and retest their performance.

Hi all good morning and need advice from expertise here. One of my customer complain that they have constantly issues with one of their product and ask us to do cross section.The report show there was “no wetting to the PCB copper pad” and cause the

If the flux you are applying by brush is alcohol based, use some alcohol on a few failed PCBs and retest. It souldn't take a lot of flux to reflow the balls to a pad that's already covered with solder and flux from the first BGA - unless you are cle

Cal - even trolls were smart enough to outwit most back in the day. I appreciate your input as well as Dave's. I agree about doing the retest. I just didn't have the right info, just some gut feel that made me question the purported lab results. I h

Don't be too sure that it is not your supplier! I have just gone through a similar problem and finally traced it back to PCB design which made the fab not very manufacturable except at a high end shop. What are the specifics of the board? 5mil trace

I'm involved in backplane manufacturing process. There are about 10 electrolitic capacitor assembled in my board.These capacitor are soldered using a selective soldering machine. My problem is that these capacitor will charged up and failed as short

It appears to us that the problem lies in the lead-free solder paste rather than the inductors. We have not found a lead-free solder that does not do this. The green is on the copper wire. We believe it gets there during the reflow. The gasses fr
