We are having solder bridges on a fine pitch QFP and was wondering whether printing speed directly affects the bridging and is there a typical formula to work out print speed?

Thank you all for the posts. From all I read lately I will probably try a different solder paste and if that doesn't work I will go for a flux feeder. I will keep you posted.

I talked to a solder paste chemsist and found out a few things. From above (Dave F) states a test for solder paste involving reflow on a non-wettable surface. Commonly known as the solder ball test this test is performed all the time by paste manufa

The blue tint could be the result of etching of the tin in your solder connection during cleaning when using a slightly basic cleaning solution. Just about anyone can duplicate this by running a board 7 or 8 times through a cleaner with a saponified

| Has anyone ever heard of testing solder paste quality by pasting a board and making a determination of the quality by measuring paste height and width after the board is pasted. Would you consider this a valid test for solder paste testing? | I ag

We've been doing this for over 10 years using flux. We print a tacky flux first using an 0.002 or 0.003" thick stencil, then print paste using a thicker stencil with the underside half etched to keep it away from the flux. In our case, we can't jus

I may have a similar problem at the moment with a QFP-68. Do the unsoldered leads leave a perfectly formed footprint in the reflowed solder? Do you usually find this issue occurring towards the corners of the QFP rather than in the middle of a row?
