I have used both 4 and 5 mil stencils for 10 mil round apertures. We don't have volume measurement capability but we measure height and the 4 mil appeared to have more paste and better uniformity from a visual standpoint than the 5 mil. The unfortu

Square you say? Wouldnt this give less paste deposition than a circle and basically reduce the standoff height the same as making the pad bigger? Would using a type 4 paste for this size stencil aperture (.013") be a good idea? Thanks JD

| Hi, | We are in the process of evaluate our solder paste,incoming inspection over the solder paste, stencil requirments: | | 1- Is anybody using/requiring 1000 Kcps or more on viscosity to your solder paste provider ? Why ?? | 2- Is anybody using

Experiencing some solder balls on an SSO-36 package. Things I am planning on checking are as follows: (not necesarilly in this order) I am just looking for a sanity check to see if you would try other things to help ? 1) Reflow profile. I have he

Yes, you need to run the 'offsets' calibration to correct the offset issue. If the machine is in good working order and all of the other alignments and cal's are completed then you are good shape to go to run this cal. If not, you could waste a few

We need to rework for CCGA1657 (Ceramic Column Grid Array): removal and soldering. Its size: 42.5 x 42.5 mm. Its height is 7.25 - 9.61 mm. We use 63Tin-37Lead water-soluble paste. Our mini-stencil is 6-mil with 27 mil apertures. Please show your expe

We recently reduced our standard aperture reduction to aid in the reduction of solder on gold defects. Since this reduction in aperture size, we have been experiencing exposed copper at the end of the component pads. The heel and toe joints are per

When I used the micro-stencils, We purchased the holder from the stencil manufacturer. As far as design we used 5mil stencils for uBGAs,6-7 mil for larger 63/37 balls, and 8 mil for CBGAs. Aperture openings used were slightly smaller than what we wo

On a related note, I'm wondering if any of the newer devices have any way to factor in paste not releasing from the corners, or for that matter, radiused, oval, or round apertures. We have an LSMII, and all it does it let you draw a rectangle around

It may be the case (if you are using stencils to apply the epoxy) that you will have to indeed use a stepped stencil to appply the epoxy at a greater height. Not being an engineer i am not completely clear with the involvements of stencil design -
