| | Dennis, thanks for your input. I myself can't remember having any caps fail due to thermal stress/cracking. But the guru's here says it happens and since the assembly is for space flight, it's a requirement to preheat. Also, your process is exac

Every thing you need is in "links" here http://packaging.hp.com/. The only thing you need to do now is find it. Ah, so much information, so little time. Yeh yeh yeh, nice little ESD bags are good. Er, maybe sealed barrier bags might be better. E

SMT assembly, First, you must utilize paste otherwise the parts will not stay put. Do you have any leaded devices such as QFPs or SOICs? Dispensing paste by hand is very difficult and time consuming for these types of parts. You can either dispense

You should not have glue "all over the place." Tou should not have glue on solderable surfaces. It sounds like you are stringing glue from one dispense location to the next. Search the fine SMTnet Archives [there might be something there]. Read a

In a similar conversation ... Alex Krstic, NovAtel Inc. said ... Hello all. We recently received some boards with some of the chip resistors placed with their resistive elements towards the board. J-STD-001B and C view this as violation for both Cl

Jeff R, The "24VS" stands for 24VDC Voltage Switched; meaning that it is supplied under machine control and other things have to happen in the machine before 24VS is applied, in this case to KP1 coil. KP1 coil/contact is in place as part of the pow

| | Recently, there has been an upsurge in the Pin Hole/Blow Hole problem in our wave soldering process. We are baking the PCBs for 2 Hrs. at 125 degree C. The Wave Soldering profile seems to be O.K. Still the problem is persistent. Can somebody h

You can't control what you don't measure. You have provided very little detail other than post reflow costs are high. What defects are attributed to problems experienced prior to reflow? Are these random or recurring defects? You will need to put ea

In answer to your questions. (1) pls can any body throw some light on the reflow profiling? Reflow profiling is the process of confirming that you PCB's that pass through your reflow oven are produced within specifications provided by solder paste

Hello Everyone, Mountains and mountains of data in the archives. As a contractor the variables in your production lots don't help I'm sure. On a larger scale, one suggestion maybe to first look at when and where your tomb stoning is occuring. 1
