Grant, Newer lead-free fluxes have 6%-10% solids content - more activator, therefore leave more "visible" residues. Old technology tin-lead fluxes got down to as low as around the 4%-6% range (I'm going off memory, so me might be wrong)... You'll

Assuming the traces run parallel and perpendicular to each other, I'd choose one direction the traces run as "x" and the other direction for "y." Then I'd pick a unique identifier on the board to insure proper orientation. Next, I'd measure warp and

Yes, it would. That you are asking this question makes us wonder if you would be better advised to contract with a independent FA laboratory to help you baseline your analysis. Among the fine labs to consider are: * Robisan Laboratory 6502 East 21

I have been asked a very good question but have not been able to find a good answer. IPC for both PCB and PCBA refer to the X & Y dimensions to measure warp and twist but how would you determine the warp and twist for a round PCB or PCBA?

Hi Evtimov, You can get some information from IPC-SM-782A. Good luck! jed

We are looking for a Inspection house in China to perform Inspection and Sorting on PCBA manufacturing process and product at various MNC's. Well verse with IPC requirement.

Tried both, with no success. The big guys are pretty secretive about how they do things. The lawyer understands arbitration and things like that, but doesn't have a clue about customer furnished materials or volume pricing. I have found that IPC is w

Just out of curiosity, how are you or anyone else determining a defect? Last I checked, IPC had no criteria yet for solder defects for QFN components. Has this changed? Biggest problems we see are voids which our x-ray shows a lot of. Our problems

On over printing, the general issues are: * Paste deposits being so large that when reflowing, collapse onto many, rather than a single solder mass. * Paste expanding during heating and being close to other solder deposits and bridging [as you say].

My personal favorite is the Siemens F series and the UIC GSM platform. Both Siemens and UIC have awesome resources for csp, flipchip and baredie processing - Siemens= Dan Baldwin from GaTech; UIC = George Westby from UIC labs. My second choice would
IPC is the trade association for the printed wiring board and electronics assembly industries.
