I have a problem with measling on our PCB's. We saw it on our FR4 PCB's at final assembly yesterday. Is this a defect from the board vendor or something we did in our assembly process when building the PCA's (thru hole). Could the wave solder mach

We have problems with achiveing a void free soldered joint when we seal different kind of packages (QFP,LCC and PGA) We think the problem partly is due to outgasing from the die-adhesive (silver-glass) Does anybody have any reccomendations what to d

Sirs, What are the issues involved when a stencil printer is used for printing solder paste and adhesive? UV-curing of adhesive appears to help reduce slump and spread by forming a tough skin on the adhesive blob deposited on the PCB. Is th

The Kyzen product was brought to my attention from a chemist at Kester solders when I asked him what could remove no clean residue from a PCB that had been built weeks earlier. We soaked it in the Kyzen for 8 minutes and ran the board through the aq

Thomas, Dave is right - we had a similar coplanarity problem on some BGAs which we solved simply by over printing - no step required by nearly 2 x what happens is that the paste hight will grow as the paste reflows confined by the pad drop me line a

Does anyone know of an AOI system that can look at the solder joints of SMT chip devices (1206,0805 & 0603) and make a reliable presence/abscence call of the joint on a HASL PCB. A low false call rate (much less than 1%)is required. Any info. from

Does anyone out there have any pictures (jpeg preferred) of solder paste prints - or know where some are available. It will be awhile before our 35mm camera for our 3D scope arrives and I need some for inspection criteria. I need the good, bad, and u

| Hello, | I need some users information about "Air knif" in wave soldering: | 1. Does it decreases bridging ? | 2. Is it self installed of a purchesed kit (if purchesed, who are the recomended vendors) ? | 3. Any other information about the issue. |

Can sombody tell, why the boards soldered with no-clean paste be cleaned at all ! I wants to sop cleaning at our plant but technicaljustification is required to convince my customers in Australia & England. Pl. let me know, from where I can find th
