Since we follow IPC Class III, I've done experiments turning N2 on and off and measuring void level with both SnPb and SAC305 solder. In both cases there was a statistically significant, measurable increase in voids with N2, but it wasn't significan

Splitting hairs, I expect SIR of all solderability protection, including OSP, to decrease after reflow. What�s more, I expect the SIR of all solderability protection to pretty much decrease over time. The �comb pattern� test specimens meet requirem

Guys, So I recently started working for a small CM in Southern N.H. We currently use 2 Magic Chef Mini wine friges to store the solder paste (63/37, RoHS). I've been monitoring the room temp (and humidity) and the frige temps all this week. The pro

N2 is a reflow process widener so to speak, for leaded reflow less of a impact, for LF more impact, and if using finer LF solder pastes T4,T5 and smaller paste deposits generally, it helps widen window for flux in paste in oxide protection during soa

Hi Joane, this flux is primarily designed for wave soldering. I think that manual soldering it´s possible. Certainly it´s very hard to dispensing correct amount of the flux. Succinic acid is one from all ingredients of this flux. If you have this

Dear all, I want to know the difference between the CSP and the BGA (I think there is only in the mesh pin difference). Secondly, if their solder balls have same dia, LxBxH are also same with the the manufacturing of the pin coating chemical elemen

Used this paste on ENIG boards W/O N2 and had very good results. (0402's,BGA's,16mil FP) Never had the need to use N2 with this paste on our products. Running with N2 shouldn't hurt anything. The wetting properties should get even better than they ar

Comp is relay. I've pulled the spec. Max 240. Using Leister h/g with manual temp settings from 1-6 (20 - 600C)set by the operator. Gun was set to setting 4. They are using the heat gun to reflow the solder after SMT but before wave. High fai

Relays huh? I can tell you from previous experience that relays are not a good heat gun candidate. Did you check how long this part can withstand the 240? I do not know what the 4 setting is on a liester but it is probably well in excess of the 24

Anyone have experience with Indium NC-SMQ92J solder paste used in an inert (N2) reflow oven?
