Don't forget the monitor's. There are only two ways to get out of this problem, if the monitor get's magnetizised: 1. Replace the monitor. 2. Turn in the monitor to a Tv-repairman that can do a de-magnetizing of the monitor.

How high a voltage? TV products use hundreds of volts on the vertical and horizonatal sync circuits. Historically, these consumer products were NOT cleaned. For your situation, contact your paste supplier.

www.topline.tv has inch/metric parts too. 0201's being 0603's took some getting used to.

Topline sells kits with the dummy components and the boards. They will also give you the CAD DATA for the placements on the board. You can also use these as "gold boards" to check placement accuracy and machine repeatability. http://www.topline.tv

Ahhh, the seminar. Almost as bad as "seeing it on TV". Keep your shoes shiny and wear nice cloths. You'll make it in American manufacturing - if you have buzzwords up to snuff.

We are currently using the solder on our waves, and our boards are for TV applications. Tested the solder before we mass prod, eg. 3000 cycles reliability test.

Piotr, Are you talking about Dummy Class 101 from Topline? I found this to be very helpful for beginners. http://www.topline.tv/DummyClass101.pdf

Steve is right. There is a difference between flat ribbon "devices" and flat ribbon "cable". IPC standards are the same for flat ribbon as gull wing. Here's a pic for example: http://www.topline.tv/FLATPACK.html
