Issue: At 60'C test PCB Fails. Operator did simulation. Use of Heat Gun to heat up the BGA to 60'C while PCB is powered and running. At 60'C BGA fails. When pressed system is back which means that something becomes open. Sent BGA for SEM and found t

Comments are: * Sounds like it's necessary to clean "heareous F381, F352 no clean solder paste" in your application. Consider a paste that may be better suited to your application. * If you're cleaning "low residue flux", consider using an organic ac

I love these stories. At my previous employer we experienced intermittent failures on an audio microprocessor assembly being used on a *new* product. This board had numerous microprocessors and complex firmware aboard. They discovered one PLCC on

Good morning, My advice is to put two Topaz-Xii in line. Machine programming is rather easy (with PPS and GPP that AssemleOn offers), but final teaching on machine is strongly required. If you want to prepare programs fully offline you�ll have to pu

Hello Greg, I agree with you that the article in SMT Magazine should be studied very carefully as it contains many errors in respect to SN100C. The testing performed was a DOE and was not an optimized run. There is also a statement on dross generatio

Hello, I am automating a process on our floor from wire solder hand application to dispensed paste and reflow. The process involves "lidding" a shielding lid around our assemblies for microwave quieting. The result is non-hermetic. For cosmet

I am looking for an industry standard �stock� note to place on our printed circuit board assembly drawings that will capture a level of cleanliness for an IPC-A-610 class 2 board assembly. I�m looking for some quantitative spec for cleanliness that w

My company is currently using point source soldering of SMT components. We have seen some problems due to improper soldering and are looking to switch to a reflow oven/hotplate assembly. Our PCB's range in size but are no larger than 5"x5" and we as

Hi, One thing, getting back to the original topic, is you might want to panelize these boards as much as possible, as you don't have too many components, but you have some good volume. So the machine changeover time is going to be an issue. Althoug
