A solder connection that is characterized by the presence of solder beyond the connection area is called: *Excessive solder *Insufficient solder *Open Solder Joint

Please give us more information about the source of the solder that you mention. Is it: * HASL applied by your supplier * Solder on pads after wave soldering * Solder paste after printing * Solder on pads after reflow soldering ... or what?

During reflow soldering, sometimes via fill with solder leaving the solder connection starved. Questions are: * Specifically, what is the problem you see? * Do the defective pads show that solder has melted in a uniform fashion? * How do the tempera

Sounds like you're not getting the solder connection hot enough. Talk about: * Temperature of the solder on the connection * Solder alloy * Board solderability protection * Component solderability protection

if your solder wave machine has a removable solder pot, consider getting a second solder pot. So you will start with a brand new empty solder pot. Keep the current one with your current solder as a backup.

Before this wave solder pallet salesman blather gets too far out-of-control, let�s stop for a minute. The three major approaches you have are: 1 SELECTIVE SOLDERING: Using: * Specialty wave soldering machine to solder specific areas of a board * P

Solderability standards are: * IPC EIA J-STD-002B - Solderability Tests for Component Leads, Terminations, Lugs, Terminals and Wires * IPC EIA J-STD-003A - Solderability Tests for Printed Boards Not intending to insult you, but terms used to descr

Go for it!!! You were unspecific, but adding mask to a completed board could cause: * Increased paste thickness, if you have double thickness of solder mask. * Wrinkled and lifted solder mask under the component, if the solderability protection of

GR@ICS: Are you drag soldering or point-to-point soldering? Keep in mind. Drag soldering mimics wave soldering. Molten solder is contacting and dragging across the solder mask. Keep in mind, too, that "semi-matt" or "semi-gloss" will also tend to
