We are currently looking for a way to measure pcb stress during our assembly process. We would like to get an idea of what amount of stress (flex) the boards are undergoing. We would also like to use this to compare a few different processes--for e

The rule-of-thumb is to follow the flux mfg.'s recommended profile to achieve their specified top side PCB temperature before making contact with the wave. Typical top side PCB temps are 100-120deg.C. Your wave contact time should be around 2 seconds

Do you bond with Al or gold wire? What happens if the Ni is over 150 microinches? Thickness of nickel is one those things that we have not been consistent with. The industry seems to pretty much universally call for 100-200 microinches. Our old board

Hello, I had recently a problem of crack between the solder ball (SnPb) and the Ni layer of the PCB pad. We use Electroless Ni/Au technology for PCB. This phenomena is amazing because the crack is very clean (straight) and it creates a space betwee

I would like to know the Stated Specification for PTH size tolerances. Or is there a generalised acceptable limit?. We have some PCB's with hole sizes that I consider to be way off what I would deem acceptable, ie Finished hole size should be 0.89mm

The basic guidline is lead size plus 0.010" which you can also use for through hole reflow/intrusive reflow. Most suppliers of the insertion equipment quote this as the minimum clearance hence its a good guide. Druing recent trials for through hole

Hi mate, checked with one of our egg-brains in the factory (freakin' workaholic still around at this time of night), he tells me that Ag-based PCB finishings share rather similar reflow temperatures for normal Sn/Pb applications. this means (if he i

Are you refering to MacDermid Sterling Silver finish or immersion silver in general. We have had enquiries about Sterling Silver from a customer and the blurb I have read looks very good (don't most sales literature). Has anyone tried this finish? O

I' designing a PCB with SMD components to optimize the land patterns for wave soldering. I find that the IPC-SM-782 land patterns are not robust enough for wave soldering, yielding ramdom skips and bridges. This PCB will also give me insight on sha
