Is there not an issue with reflowign the SAC ball's in term's of drivign up the lead contect in a lead free joint that increases the risk of failure in them? certainly dramatically increases voiding... have some pictures of soem that a customer tried

Hi all Pls. help advise. Our board use RMA solder paste (Pb-free Sn96.5/Ag3.0/Cu0.5). Can we use No-clean paste flux (Delta 670S1) in rework process? If it can not be used, why?. Thanks very much for your advice. Surachai

MKS, You do not need to reach a temp of 245C to form a joint and surely not for 0603s. Since you are using such a high temp your flux is getting dried out.. Also if you are going to reach a peak of 245C on a brd that has Sn/Pb compt and Pb-free.. yo

Flux drop in lead free process

I am seeing a problem of flux droping on the PCBA during reflow. This is a pb free process and I am using KOKI pb free paste with 8 zone (and some 9 zone) reflow ovens. Line throughput is about 10,000 boards/24 hours. I suspect that the exhaust is no

Indium Corp. has some, 3549-HF and 3590-T, both are OK for foaming. Most of the better performing newer fluxes require spray application for best performance. Alpha, Kester and others have wave fluxes too. http://www.indium.com/products/circuitboar

Soldering lead free and leaded tin in the mix in one machine

I have done it different ways on different equipment. 1. Remove alloy one from the machine. Add alloy two only. and use it.For next board, do the same. 2. There are machines with separate sections for PB and PC-Free, so pots are away from each other

Immersion gold and BGAs

Electronics Forum | Fri Aug 26 09:57:21 EDT 2005 | russ

The Immersion gold is not a problem with BGAs specifically but "black pad" which can be present anywhere. The unfortunate thing with BGAs is you cannot see it. Personally I hate white tin. It is okay for single sided boards running no-clean, but c

This is what I was thinking, but I am being beat up pretty badly by the selective solder. Ambient temperature is anywhere in the the neighborhood of 76 - 80 degrees F. I am not sure of the RH, but I wouldn't think that would be my issue... One of
