Using isopropanol with DI water for rinsing after washing boards

Electronics Forum | Fri Nov 11 13:52:05 EST 2011 | SheanDalton

What is the size of the low standoff components you find trace wash effluent? and, what is the gap from the board to the underside of the component? If your component has a very low standoff, and/or, a wide footprint, you may want to consider findi

SMT - PCB combo process

Electronics Forum | Mon Oct 15 08:15:41 EDT 2012 | scottp

Is the designer's concern that the parts will fall off when hanging upside down during reflow? We've been doing this for decades and our test if we think a part is marginal is to glue a 2nd (and sometimes 3rd) part to the back and send it through re

DPAK's sliding off pad during reflow

Electronics Forum | Thu Aug 13 14:10:01 EDT 2015 | markhoch

Hi Sam, I have a feeling that what you're trying to communicate is that your DPAK's are skewing off the pad during reflow. This is caused by a thermal "mismatch" where the solder paste on one side of the DPAK becomes molten before the other, then th

Good job clarifying things. So, your MELF are just rolling off the pads. So much for the rocket scientist that talked you into those �V� shaped apertures, eh? [Or taking it the other way: Wow, just think how bad it would be if they weren�t worki

RoHS Issues

Electronics Forum | Thu Apr 19 08:50:38 EDT 2007 | rgduval

Welcome to RoHS. Or, at least, to the version of RoHS that I've had to deal with since I started with my current company. Blowholes and pinholes seem to be common in PB-free manufacturing. At least, they have for me here. I also note that IPC has

Electronics Forum | Mon Jun 30 01:30:14 EDT 2008 | benefon

Hi Well as the feed movement is effected by means of a spring return force there really isn't that much to do apart from checking the spring tension and keeping the friction surfaces of the ratchet mechanisms of the feed sprocket and the top foil pu
