I'm not sure if I understand the question correctly... Mainly, drill the mushroomed end of the rivet with a drill bit that is slightly larger than the shaft size of the rivet and remove the cover. Then, you should have easy access to what you need t

In-Circuit Test is the best method for ensuring solder joint connections. It is a much more reliable than AOI. An ICT machine can ensure solder connections are made for array package devices such as BGA, PGA, etc... AOI is best for component I.D.- is

Do not believe every thing your suppliers tell you, even a written cert does not guaranty compliance. We recently purchased a Niton XRF analyzer. The first day in use we found component�s that were made for us "RoHS" that were far from compliant. Peo

Hi Ken, Good question, and I did search for what you are asking, but unable to find anything conclusive about using tacky flux vs. solder. In reliability, it depends on which section of the process you are talking about. Mainly (and there are sev
