We have a problem with dendritic growth that is affecting a new board going into production. This is of concern because they were subjected to Damp Heat Cyclic Tests as part of the product validation testing during their development. Fails to date

We might need to open up the term "mass production" here, but I will give it a try anyway. I've seen semiconductor packaging companies in the far east where they pick up balls with a vacuum head, consisting of holes matching the pattern of the BGA p

Hi, It seems weird that an automated pick and place machine at a board shop would not be up to NASA standards, but placing the components by hand would be. However most SMT will self center a bit, so if your close enough, you should be ok. You rea

I would suggest 7mm thick "Durostone" as a carrier material. Cut lip/pocket for PCB so it is 0.05" thinner than thickness of PCB. Allow 0.010" gap on all sides of PCB. Machine lip to width between 0.050" and 0.100" to support under perimeter sides

If you visually inspect the solder joints of the first dozen or so boards with the Pb free parts and you're meeting workmanship standards then I wouldn't worry about it. When we started getting the first barrage of Pb free parts a couple years ago w

Hi, It sounds like your a little new at profiling, and can be difficult to do well. We purchased a KIC profiler that has software that will take your profile data and tell you the best oven temperature settings and conveyer speed to use. You need

I agree with all the prior postings! But I have some additional thoughts about this. If there is a build up of moistures (% humidity) inside the pcb; before you reflow the pcba; then you will have the result out of the oven, just as you described. My

Hi guys, Have any of you encountered harwin connector M80-647 in the past? Have you noticed any problems with the reliability of the component, solderability and 'reworkability' (thats a new word for sure)? Heres a PDF of the component; http://www.

Hello Joseph, Sorry for the bad news but microcracking is a well known potential condition occuring with the SAC305 alloy. Microcracking is a condition being seen with many joints soldered with the SAC305 alloy. It is technically a shrinkage cavity

There are many rules, but balance is the key. It all depends on your processes, type of equipment you plan to run the panel through, as well as the type of components going onto the board. If your single up circuit has 6 thru-hole caps, 5 connector
