This is wave soldering process and design question since most folks associated with SMT are processing mixed assemblies. We have a 3-leaded sensor (radial) with such a tight pitch always bridges. Solutions unders disussion are pre-forming and addin

Hi, We should wavesolder a PLCC44 package. The PCB is under the design procedure now and we must specify the best parameters (the orientation (45 or 90 degrees) of the package on the PCB,the number, the positon and the size of the solder thief pads

Enlarging the "End Pads" is normally done to help accomodate the Wave soldering process... works as solder thief to help eliminate bridging on the last 2 pins to cross the wave. It is reasonable to assume that, if you are seeing cold solder due to fl

Wondering if anyone knows if this product actually exists? If so please provide details. Thanks, Loz

I once used some foil tape from 3M with hightemp adhesive. It actually sorta worked. Russ

Not as such. Choices are: 1 Cut and epoxy some board foil from your board fabricator. 2 Sacrifice part a pad repair kits from the likes of: * Engineering Lab 905-785-1982 * Circuit Technology Center 978-374-5000 * General assembly suppliers catalog

| Dear everybody : | Does anyone have some information about "bleeder pad"? it seems a method to avoid solder shorts across very small SMT pads.If someone have any idea about it, please contact with me , thanks ! | Young: I'm unfamiliar with the

This "thieving" idea is a good one. There is a SMTnet thread on connector thiefs from a coupla years ago that you might check.

If that's what you mean, here's what we call them: ROBBER PADS... Pretty close to the "thief" I guess. Those come with the design and if the wave soldering direction is not known at the time of design and/or there's no real estate limitation, the rob
