Hi Everyone, I'm looking for some feedback about through hole assembly requirements today vs. yesteryear. As I see it, there are two main categories...legacy through hole and new through hole with mixed technology. The legacy stuff is older designs

I know - A stimulating topic.... IPC-TM-650 2.3.28 method calls for a PCBA or PCB to be placed into a bag with solution, shake, analyze. Great. There is a method of doing this testing that focuses on a specific area of a PCB or a component where r

Hi Folks, I'm working on a LED display that is composed of multiple layers. What is interesting for the point of this discussion is the PCB layer and the light deflector layer on top of it. Please take a look at the related pictures at http://plus

As mentioned the ProntoGERBER-CONNECTION software from Unisoft ( http://www.unisoft-cim.com/gerber_connection.htm) does the Gerber to intelligent shapes (ref des, x/y center, rotation, p/n, etc.) function for over 25 years. If you wish I'm availab

Depending on what X-Y centroid / CAD data you need, there are different SW I've used to do the job. If you need PCB gerber "artwork" (rounds, rectangles, lines, squares,...geometric figures), you can use GraphicCode GC-Place & such - load the gerber

In switching to lead free processing, we find ourselves having over 400 PCB part numbers with Sn63 HASL finish. And there is no hope of quickly purging inventory and getting our drawings changed to call out a lead free finish. I want to avoid having

Drilling a hole, and attaching the thermocouples underneath the part is the recommended way to profile for a BGA, unfortunately. It allows the best method of collecting specific data, including any thermal sinking/shadowing that the BGA creates. Ho

...Unless you could dispense a fine glassfibre mesh in much the same way a 3D printer extrudes plastic filament and then spray epoxy over the top. It would be remiss to 2nd guess what compounds physical chemists can come up with for such a project. E

hi everyone, I want to prototype my PCB. i have designed entire thing and also created GERBER files. Now i want to be prototyped. So, While searching online PCB manufacturing Companies, I found Many companies. But everywhere it is mentioned choose

Thanks for the feedback and the confirmation that it is, in fact, a bug. I have trained my operators to always use file Save at the end of the day (up to a network drive) & then I have an external program that archives the daily setup back into our r
