This is the same misinformation half-truth BS I have been hearing from CircuitCam for a long time. The truth is, Unicam has a product that automatically recognizes the Component and Ref designator, where CC requires the user to input each and every

My regards to everyone. I have to agree with previous message. I've written macro in excel to modify protel pik file to whatever form I need (and I need PCB file for MYDATA) Takes about 5-10min to come up with workable program. the only problem tha

I searched the archives and couldn't find anything specific. Our designers would like me to wave solder an SO18 on an upcoming product. My IPC standards have land patterns, but no recommendation on wavesoldering. This is a higher pin count than we

If I were you, I�d be concerned about waving your SO18 too. What is a SO18? Who makes that package? Regardless, it should be a can of corn, if you: * Orient it so that leads on opposite sides of the component see the wave at the same time. * Incre

I need some advise from the reflow experts. In your experience in nitrogen versus air reflow, what would be the differences in profile parameters? For example, if I profiled a board in nitrogen and achieved (for a particular component) ramps rates un

In my experiance, I have seen no difference in profiles between nitrogen and air reflows. What I understand is that the Nitrogen blanket allows for a greater solderability to gold plated pads. I also found that when dealing with fine pitch componen

Dave, It will all be about the same - changing atmospheres does not affect your heater output. You may experience some differences in the way your solder joints look (a little duller), but with some of the newer pastes out there, you can overcome i

Ian, The vision should recognize it; given you've got the correct Part Data. To run 0402 effectively with a CP3 you need: 1. A good, I mean real good, CP4 style feeder for 0402 (1005) 2. 0.7mm nozzles (get from second-source supplier such as WT in

It is not gonna work. Even though you fine tuned the CP3. 0603 is the maximum. The camera design is only for the 0603 maximum. If you use it for 0402. I think at least 60% of the component are gone. Also, there is no 0802 feeder for the CP3. How can

Great Dave !!! What would we do without you ? I�ve never seen someone with that much broad knowledge in our field and the will to share it. Your Karma-point score must be one of the highest. I want to thank you (I think in the name of all here) and
