There is no shortage of reasons to clean your boards. Soldering or reflowing your boards leaves �stuff� on them. This �stuff� is normally corrosive and conductive (some fluxes / pastes are more corrosive / conductive than others). In either case,

Josh: Final cure of the LPI solder mask: 310*F for 45 minutes. Your board fabricator needs to do a better job. Most fabs do not check cure, because the processes subsequent to cure are so brutal that the fab expects the following process to highlig

Guys, it is a wash process assembly, so everything on the BOM can go to wash. The question is more around number of cycles limitation/rule.

Cleaning result can vary from paste vendor to vendor and even within product lines. You should check with your paste vendor for their recommendations. Your process, materials and equipment will also have a significant impact on your success. If you'

I guess my question would be why are you getting so much/leaving so much flux on the boards during the select solder process? With a drop-jet fluxer you should be able to apply the flux very selectively and leave a fairly clean looking PCBA, assumin

We (Industrial Electronics Service Depot) have been using a dishwasher with success on dirty/contaminated boards but without BGAs. Now we have a CPU board with couple of BGAs on it and no experience/expertise.. Is the washing it and the compressed

As we understand it, you: * Get some nice BGA from your supplier * Find BGA to be packaged properly * Bake the BGA for 24 hours at [what temperature?] to reduce the potntial for damaging moisture sensitive components during following processes * Remo

Murray "No-clean" fluxes/pastes should not normally give "white residues". Before exploring cleaning, which is costly for small production levels, I suggest you may care to find out why you have these residues. To help you, can you please answer th
