We having issues installing the Linear Tech LTM8023. We have different soldering results in our PBfree testruns. The voiding and solderball rate is not stable (random positions and sizes). The pcb's (gold finish)are prebaked, the LGA's are stored in

The ENIG process will yield between 3-7 micro inches (110 - 275 microns) of gold over the nickel barrier. This thickness range is pretty much the limit as this is a self limiting displacement reaction process. Once all surface nickel ions are repl

We started our first ENIG process recently and to our surprise, we have many failure on the one and only BGA on the board. The BGA is a 31 mils pitch plastic. Sending the PCBA to 1 cycle of heating/cooling @ 70/-5 degree C yield 40% of failure. With

Daxman, Try this: - it might help your histogram. The camera may be operating production reads at or close to the z-axis drive limit but you don't know really. Write a dummy program that will allow you to load a PCB into the centernest at vision h

There have been many designs of apertures for 0402, round, home plate, inverted home plate and various reduction amounts for square or rectangular apertures. What works best for a given application depends on PCB design, solder land finish, stencil t

Gold is porous and spots on gold plated PCBs is one of the drawbacks of using gold as a solderability protector. Base Nickel exposure seems to be the cause of this and is aggravated when the gold thickness is less than what it should be. I agree with

I've been building boards for a long time and have never heard of anyone using electrolytic silver. Immersion silver would be 8-18 microinches thick. Plated silver would be significantly thicker (min a couple tenths - .0002" and up). So you may be ab

How big is the board? What is the thickness? How populated is it? Is it warping in the reflow oven? If yes, does the oven have any support? How big is the pad compared to the component footprint? How thick is the stencil? Are the components checked b

Russ: you could divide your 600 in let's say 10 or more categories,category #1 could be the thinnest thickness and smaller board size and smaller components;category #2 thinnest thickness smaller board size and mixed small and big components; and so
