1. Does anyone has seen results for the reliability of Solder Paste containing less than 1% Silver. (It is in use for soldering 0402 components because of Tombstones. 2. Is it common to use eutectic Solder Paste SnPb, without any silver, for regular

It is certainly a process indicator. What is causing this condition? Is it a chip that has its toes over the edge, edging towards tombstoning? Contact: * Jack Crawford [ JackCrawford@IPC.ORG ] * Mel Parrish [ mparrish@SOLDERINGTECH.COM ]

You may want to turn the nitrogen off altogether, in searching through the archives it has been stated and proven by many people that this could help a lot. I don't know why it appears to be outside temperature related. Could it be that the PPM le

we have some pretty tight 0402 placements and our best fix was to reduce the pad (vertically speaking) from .030x.022 to .020x.022. Fewer tombstones and the paste flows out to the edge of the pads nicely. Only difference is that we have a 6mil sten

Sounds like someone before you was dealing with tombstoning components. We have had greater success with triangular paeratures for 0603 and 0402 footprints. Granted the pad will not be wetted completly but IPC requirements are maintained.

Hi Good, that is one of the things I see some have done. With paste too thick these little components float too much off, rather than centering. YiEng, MA/NY DDave

Hi I understand that more circular or rounded pads also reduce the effect. I love it when many independent variables can alter the outcome. YiEng, MA/NY DDave

Hi Rene Great, I am glad to see that you are recommending by experience placement control as affected by the pick operation. Neat to see you are also noting a thinner paste deposition. YiEng, MA/NY DDave

additonally, minimizing the rising rate aroud 183'c and decrease the droping rate(near 0.8'c/s) is also a good way .

Did you check board orientation into the reflow oven? (The Layout components are the same products A & B?) Regards Jesus
