Properly grounding employees and work surfaces is the single most effective method of reducing esd damage to parts. Tell us about your ESD control program and how well it conforms to ANSI/ESD S20.20-1999, Electrostatic Discharge Control Program Stan

Hi Cal/Dave F, Good news today. The problem went away when I received and ran with a brand new component today. But I'm sure with a robust profile, I should be able to compensate oxidations at some degrees, rite? ( taking into consideration the suc

Your process needs some refining. How long did it take to wet? How much force did it take to break the surface tension? What type of solder was in the solder pot? What type of flux was used? What was the pot temperature? Did you take a cap and p

It depends ... * Components stored in a garage in Chiriqui,Panama will have a different shelf life than those store in a climate controlled room in Ayrshire, Scotland. * Components from a reputable supplier will likely have a different shelf life tha

The most important thing you can do is to maintain the same electrical potential between the ESD-S product, the operator and the worksurface. This is typically achieved through a grounded dissipative worksurface and an operator grounded via a wrist s

Hi.. Recently, I have received a few reels of 0402 with an old date code ( but still less than 2 years old).I don't have a capability in-house to carry out the solderability test except for the dipping test ( dip the components in the molten solder

Awww, don beso tuff on ursef!!! It sounds like you�re thinking correctly with what you�ve done, but it�s possible that the test you ran did not represent your actual production environment as well as you would have liked. So, you just need to "cran

Hi Jacobo, it would be importatn to know what kind of error the machine is displaying. Are the chips in paper or plasic tape? Did you check pickup coordinates and hight? Have you many false edge pick vision errors? Then I would switch off the tombest

Is there something special to care about while reflowing CMOS camera chips? They are pretty reflective on the surface, so I guess IR-type oven is not the best choice...
