DaveP, once you shut down the oven, the moisture will start and move into the oven unless you can completely seal the oven after you turn it off. Therefore, keep the components into the oven, don't work. However, if the oven is continously on until

Omid, No-clean fluxes need to be used right out of the can without thinning. In the past with RA and RMA fluxes you could adjust or thin them to your desired density because they had plenty of solids up to 30%. No-Clean fluxes have a lot lower solid

Mohammed, The first suggested place to start with your question would probably be with your flux Mfr. Push them! The quantity of dross is effected by several factors: The higher your solder pot temp., the higher your dross level... but don't go too

| Is there an industry standard in calculating SMT process | PPM level for benchmarking purpose ? What are the industry | benchmark ppm number for some of the defects like solder | short for 20-mil QFP, tomstone problem for 0603 components etc....

Is it safe to use the 100M ohm value found in Table 2 of J-STD-004 as a minimum for SIR with respect to flux specification acceptability? It (J4) appears to imply that that value provides some level of acceptability, but it just doesn't come right o

Defining failure modes will help determine what you need to quantify in all processes. Personally I wouldn't pursue the DoE angle (varying setup parameters to determine robustness). 1)How about % pad coverage, paste thickness, and accuracy? Define w

There are no requirements acceptance criteria for baking of board assemblies. What are your customer requirements? The common reasons people choose to bake PCB are to prevent: * Delamination of multilayer boards * Measles, particularly on double si

SN100 was designed for selective soldering and producing low levels of voiding. But thin barrel plating is a common cause of voids in wave and selective soldered connections, as you say. As a result, you checked the plating thickness and it was accep

If any changes in design is not possible and you have to solder it, it's a real headache, I know... I see only 3 options here that you can try consiquently: 1) Accurately profile the board and optimize a profile (go to lower limit of process windo

Daniel, I think JOHN and Ramot have some good ideas but I guess I am a little confused. How have you placed BGA's or QFP's in the past. If you are just starting to place them and believe you will continue to in the future, you need to start looki
