Can you increase the placement force on your P&P machine? It should squeeze the solder paste to all sides including the heel.

I have got a number of assemblies back from a customer with feedback that the solder fillet is less than 25% of chip height per IPC-Standard-610B Class 2. Most of my joints are having good wetting but fillet height does not meet min ht requirement of

AVX and a few other companies make these chip transient voltage suppressors (TVS) parts that are a real *PAIN* to use. According to AVX: "Due to the semiconducting nature of the doped Zinc Oxide (ZnO) ceramic material, SMT TransGuards are no

Hi mates, was going thru the IPC-A-610C Standards, and noted BGA voids stands somewhere between 10%-25% voids permissible in the solder "ball" bump, after reflow process. Was wondering, hypothetical case study, is there any specification for voids

There are many factors that will affect post soldering height. Lead shape/type, pad geometry, fillet formation, etc... You will need to measure each type of component before and after reflow. Russ

Toe fillets are not required per IPC, you can actually have toe overhang. Russ

Is it possible to achieve a 100% top-side solder fillet where pin 1 on the device is attached to a ground plane ? we've optimised the wavesoldering and fluxing operations, but without much success on that pin, every other pin is fine. Any advice woul

Thanks Dave! What level of voiding is acceptable? Would you please let me know if there is an EIA or other industry standard detailing solder joint quality? I will begin researching the background information you provided. Thanks again for your kin

Dave, I truly appreciate your efforts in providing information. Excellent input with the fishbone data. I will put together a presentation later tonight. I hope to return the favor in the future in regards to MLCC manufacturing or application.
