Have you considered point-to-point selective soldering using microflame ? If we look at the excellent points that Dave made.... The clearance required for the microflame is minimal, no tooling plate is required - only to fixture the parts and the p

The smallest finished hole available for 2 layer board is .020”. The smallest finished hole available for 4+ layer board is .014”. All holes are round and drilled through from top to bottom layer of board. No blind or buried vias. For holes = .15

Unfortunately nothing ground breaking to report. The board shops analysis (SEM/EDS)showed high levels of carbon and oxygen, likely indicating an organic based contaminate. They are still stumped on where it is coming from. We recieved some boards y

We have had some test results come back after we were getting poor wetting in our joints, we requested an EDS on our joints from our PCB supplier. They have provided the results and said that it was their fault and will replace. What I want to know

We haven't run a profile yet....probably because we're a-feared to. We can't do topside preheating here to any degree because we use an aluminum plate for aligning hundreds of top side through-hole components (pots, switches, buttons, LEDs) that te

Has anyone out there experienced selective soldering of a shield that is galvanized rather than tin plated? Our supplier is worried about tin wiskers with the bright tin finish. Soldering with SAC305 and a pretty weak no-clean flux. Sorry, I don't k
