Russ is right. The pad in the middle needs to be soldered as well. Also, the ends of leads exposed are not plated as well, so you will never get a toe fillet. Drives our IPC experts nutty, or should I spell it "knutee"? I don�t know, I went to a

Hmmmm, Chicago in February or southern Cal? If I'm getting on a plane anyway I'll go the extra few hours. The show was actually very good for us. We don't look at overall show attendance we look at number of quality leads (which there were many).

There is an approximate 1W dissipation and has a 2 sq in area below part on solder side as a heat sink, vias are to physically conect this solder side area to power pad, so its necessary to use an adequate amount of paste. I really don�t think it has

I have been trying to rework a lead-free BGA. For some reason, when I remove the BGA the corner pads on the board come off and the board must be scrapped. If I do manage to remove the BGA successfully, when I solder the BGA, the corners of the BGA

I have never had a problem with any other BGA's that I reworked. I recently found out that the BGA that we are trying to rework is made poorly and warps automatically from the heat. There is nothing that we could do to prevent this. Also the board

Dear all, we are using the lead-free SN100C solder alloy for wave soldering. We are experiencing wetting problems each time we have to solder a thick board or a board with a large ground plane.I think that maybe we are not using the right flux. I w

I have zero experience with SN100c, but hey, how much different can it be from Sn63Pb37?! We solder large connectors all the time - sometimes these connectors reside on a ground plane area. We've been able to overcome hole fill issues (on 63/37) th

We have recently acquired a Passaat SMRO-0406 oven. The manual is uninformative for oven settings. Can someone supply us with starting points for conveyor speed, Zone 1 to 4 and 5 to 8 temperature settings please? Our boards for a product we manufac

Maybe what you could do is have the stencil contain a tightly spaced mesh or grid of openings over the ground plane areas that you need to be solder covered. Also, to help the solder flow out better, you might want to decrease the percentage of metal

I would like an interpretation of a solder fillet on a 5 side termination cap. (Ref: IPC-610, sec. 8.2.2.6). My question pertains to the definition of dimension F, and what constitutes the top of the fillet. Does the top of the fillet end at where
