I have not added images in quite some time but the "Attachments" feature below the window where you type your post will steer you through it. You just have to have the image hosted someplace that you can point to. Just for

Gold Surface Finish on PCB's

We experienced brittle solder joints that did not withstand thermal cycling as I was told. I am positive about the fractured joints but was informed by customer that it was thermal cycling of the part when they failed so they were latent failures.

Aluminum Capacitor disassociated from sodler joint

I'm with Steve. Check the datasheet, and make sure that the terminations are meant for solder application, and not conductive epoxy. I had that happen a year or so ago with an MLCC. Drove us nuts for two days (not to mention the significant rework

Yes, we soldered some Mil-Max pins on a functional test board before. Utter nightmare. We managed to finally get them on, but yes, terrible wetting, and they act as total thermal sinks. Make sure to oversize you pads.

Hello Jinesh , if you can provide us with component datasheet , stencil design vs PAD design (GBX) and the thermal profil you use.. It would help us to found out the issue and help you.

BGA Rework - Pads being lifted

Electronics Forum | Sat Apr 04 08:35:27 EDT 2009 | davef

Cause: Solder between the pad and the BGA on the pads being lifted has not melted. So, when you lift the BGA, you also lift those pads with the unmelted solder with the BGA. These pads are probably sinking the heat to a large copper plane in a inner

No. There's nothing fancy. You need enough solder on the exposed pad for a good thermal connection, but not so much to lift the comonent off the TSSOP pads. We reduce the aperture for the pad, dunno 85%, with four windows [but it doesn't matter ho

Re: High Tg laminates

John: The 180 Tg point is a sweet spot for obtaining heat resistance, cost effectivly. These high technology boards provide good thermal resistance for wire bonding, direct chip attach, and BGA mounting and rework. Since these boards are harder th

You're thinking correctly. Concentrate your recipe development efforts by profiling directly on the pads [that some fine designer forgot to thermally isolate properly] of those pesky corner leads that don't solder well.
