Hi, We have a couple of pcb's with PTH Crystal. We are looking for a spacer to be placed between the metallic body of the crystal and the via pad/land as they tend to short if wave soldered without a spacer. The spacer we are looking for is somethin

hi. guys Have you out there ever seen the crack by means of humidity after reflow solering. We cannot analyze the cause of the tsop crack. The shape of crack seem to be hitted by sharp stuff. but there is no scar around crack . TSOP shaped long rec

Hi, sorry for reopening a old thread, but i wanted to ask if there is a way to know at what temperature the solder melts if you have a chip with underfill? I thnk its lower then normal air-fill temperature since the underfill conducts heat better the

Hello! We have a strange effect. Some pads of big trough-hole DDR slot just dessapear. Initialy it was soldered with selective soldering process (leaded, 290 degrees, ImSn finish, very short storage). Then some connectors with poor barrel fill we hav

You are correct. So, the unit amount of gold [based on IG plating thickness, size of the pad, etc.] dissolves in the solder very quickly. When the solder is liquid for: * A long time, the gold disperses more. * A short time, the gold concentrates a

Help us understand your situation by telling us about: * Is this a terminal-to-terminal short on a single MELF? Or is this a terminal-to-terminal short between or than one MELF? * Clearance of 0.8mm is the distance between what features? * Size ME

Hi Daan, What we did in the time was pareto analyses on all board designs to determine the critical areas (mainly design errors) and only inspect those specific problem areas. Every batch had a copy of the PC board with problem areas marked and only
