OSP vs HASL

Electronics Forum | Sat May 12 00:04:36 EDT 2001 | zam_bri

The product I'm running currently consist a mix of 20 mil pitch QFP, 50 mil pitch, 0402, BGA and variable size of connectors from small to big, on OSP finished PCB. Running intrusive reflow with a mix packages is a real headache, esplly when you hav

Desiccants and pcb finish degradation?

I said: "Our electronic circuit board fabricators seal the boards in moisture barrier bags [MBB]. We discontinued the use of desiccant bags in these MBB because of concerns about the desiccant releasing materials that would affect the solderability

Consider using a roll solder with a flux that well matches the residues you can accept to be remaining on the board when you get finished processing. Many people use a no-clean flux cored roll solder for such operations, because they don't want to c

AF: Unfortunately, there is no "acceptable number of cycles" either in air-to-air and one liquid-liquid thermocycling, nor interconnect stress testing. There can be a "minimum threshold" that would assure no failures as the result of the assembly p

Opeator point of view: 1. eassy to read menues. Organized structure. Large text and use of color to indicate important info status...green=good, yellow= warning, red=fatal etc. Simplicity rules in this realm. GUI are great for operations screens

Thanks, gentlemen. All points well taken, and some hit pretty close to home. Our pick-and-place programmer assures me that coplanarity isn't the issue because the machine won't (or can't) place parts beyond an acceptable criteria. It's an Amistar

Re: no-clean processes - are gloves necessary?

Electronics Forum | Thu Oct 21 09:56:11 EDT 1999 | Brian

Rich An excellent question and one which is often totally ignored. If you wish a "no-clean" flux to be as safe as it possibly can be, the PCB and the components must all be contamination free (ionic and non-ionic). Only then can you be sure that the

Ken: Since Earl is no longer here, I guess I'll bite on this. Your questions are very broad and difficult to answer specifically. So, I'll give you broad and non-specific answers. | Hi, | | We are using mixed technology in our PCBA. Would like to
