Handling requirements of all classifications of moisture sensitive devices is found in J-STD-033. It really isn't an issue for most parts unless they're going to reach reflow temperature again, which is unlikely unless you're removing a nearby compo

Hi Dave, Thanks on your feedback, May I know the how's the contributing of Moisture content of bare board and the Thickness of the copper plating in the PTH to the solder ball and solder splash during hand soldering process ?

Your customer is correct. You are doing something wrong in your hand soldering process. Solder balls are a process indicator. Areas to assess are: * Moisture content of the bare board * Thickness of the copper plating in the through holes * Temperatu

Have you check the flux gravity lately? If not, Check the flux gravity every 6 hours to make sure proper parameters are meet. Here is a list of things that may cause your solder ball problems; Excecive heat, defective fixtures, preheating temperature

Find out if you can separate the dehumidifier controls from the heating/cooling controls, without adding an air handler. Otherwise I think you'd need to add a dehumidifier that runs independantly. Don't forget that system capacity has to be rated fo

We have a potential new customer who has special PCB requirements. I do not know a lot of details at this point, but have several questions. One of their assemblies has within it , a MID, Solid foil layer, completely isolating one side of the PCB f

I do a lot of thermal cycle testing of new components for my company and often when I lay out a test board I'm trying to simulate 4 or 6 layer boards but I don't need them for routing so I just use a solid fill of a cross-hatch pattern. I've done it

Although we do not have any soldering issues with our OSP PCB's, I am trying to establish clear rules with regards pcb storage and shelf life. Our PCB's are supplied in metalised moisture barrier bags but without desicant, our current rules as follow

Per ESD Handbook TR 20.20 paragraph 5.3.15 Humidity "Humidity is beneficial in all ESD Control Program Plans. Contact and separation of dry materials generates greater electrostatic charges than moist materials because moisture provides conductivity
