| We understand that testing for ionic contamination and surface insulation resistance measure different properties. We assemble printed circuit boards for other companies. We will not get combs on 90% of the boards that we assemble. | We have no c

| I'm also in the "Don't score it" camp. Routed breakaways are much better. If your wave solder process has decent control on the wave height, you shouldn't worry about flooding the boards. | The fine pitch consideration for panelizing - Since you

| | I am having a problem with Entek coated boards. The solder past seem to just ball up on the pads. I had no problems with the board when it was hot air leveled. The board is double sided surface mount. I have tried adjusting the oven profiles m

| We have a double sided pcb that is surface mount on both sides. Now a Through Hole connector has been added. Appart from hand soldering does anyone have info. on reflow soldering the part. The connector is 0.1mm pitch, square legs. | 1) Do you need

Very few concern themselves about the strength of solder connections, because it doesn�t require much strength to keep a solder connection attached to the board. More important are factors that arise as a result of the different materials properties

Happy Friday All! Well, it seems another "opportunity" has presented itself to me. Looking to assemble a 24" X 24", 52-layer board... piece-o-cake, right? Not real sure of all the components that are on it, but I do know that there is some 20-mil

1 CAN WAVE SOLDER AFFECT OR DAMAGE BGA? Sure. Since you are vague, assuming: * Partially assembled board was not stored to prevent moisture absorption. * BGA is in a plastic package. * Partially assembled board was stored long enough to exceed th
