If you apply the RTV after coating, what happens to bond strength since you are now bonding to the coating and not the board? Will the caps still survive vibration and shock? I specify applying RTV before coating for this reason. Am I correct? I als

We understand the problem of trying to coat over RTV. We have seen the same problem with acrylic and urethane coatings not wanting to stick to RTV. Some acrylics seem to be worse than urethane. Since this is a new product, may be you could pot your

For now, on this first board, we will be reworking components such as 0805 and 1210 size caps and resistors, along with SOT-23 and SC-70 size packages. We might eventually get into BGAs. This board will most likely be a double-sided board, probably

For package shapes/names I would recommend using manufacturer names. This is much safer than coming up with descriptive names like QFN32_5x5 as there are multiple 5mm 32Pin QFN shapes even when pitch is the same, this makes it safer to use a name in

Earl, et al, Boy things get old and cold around here fast. I promised more detail on my capactior problem and I thought I could drop something completely different in the same message and tell a tale of solder balls. First the caps. We still have

I'm with Steve and flying probing. As long as you are testing the capacitance of the cap in the circuit and not of the cap itself you'll get a pretty good indication. Most are going to be 10nf and 100nf decoupling caps at that size so quite easy to

I have a Polyimide board that is showing signs of de-lamination. I was wondering what pre-bake times and temperatures other people would recomend for new boards as well for boards that have been on the shelf for 8 months.

Check the reference plate on the hydra to make sure it is not cracked or delaminated. I have had problems with the glue coming loose and the plate flapping causing this same problem. check hydra camera calibrations, this to may help.

R&D is currently designing a board with smt components on both sides of the board. They are adding a 16 pin IC Gull wing. on the bottom side of the board. I have asked for only caps and resistors to be placed on the bottom side. Is there a recommende

I would assume we are talking about a radial leaded electrolytic cap? We use Electronic grade RTV (Dow corning 3145). It sticks good and can be removed if necessary. It is also pliable so you don't have to worry about CTE or other stresses that may
