A lot of it depends upon what the lead terminations are and the storage conditions. For example if they are tin you will run into trouble. We have used all types of parts that are all ages (We just started doing BGAs that are 5 years old.) I don't

Thank You, Unfortunately I work at a contract house so I have no control. I will definitely take your advice and try to prevent as many problems as I can. From what you�ve told me already I can see a few things we need to change before processing th

Wanted to inquire if anyone has a way to monitor cleanliness of boards that are assembled with a no-clean process. I'm aware that incoming board cleanliness can be monitored, however, I am after checking of cleanliness of boards after assembly. Wit

Running a spare board with each job would be expensive. Consider running boards: * That were scrapped by your fabricator. * Without components. Admittedly you loose a measure of the contamination provided by your component suppliers, but if it's a

I am doing the same once I get a few varies in different profiles, I set about 6 different levels and depending on board thickness and qty of large parts I go from that. It has worked well for us. Hope this helps because we also hate waiting for ano

If you don't seal your packaging, the silica gel will try to remove the moisture from the air and will become saturated pretty quickly. There is no requirement that you pack/ship with dessicants. Some customers require such things though. Why do y

My customer just assembles it to the car. We want to use the silica gel to avoid moisture since the assembled part (clock) reach him via ship after 50 days. The electronic circuit board has no conformal coatings at present. We are working on that. Ou

Try searching the archives, I saw the formula posted in an earlier thread I belive that relating to Double sided with BGAs but I am not sure I think Dave F. posted this one. So what is an "R"QFP I haven't heard of that one before. Russ
