The one thing I haven't seen mentioned yet is developing the the control systems for the process equipment and materials. You don't want to mix up your solder paste, bar, and wire, and you don't want to cross-contaminate by using equipment (solderi

Questions are: * Why aren't the defective LED blinking? * Do the defective LED blink when removed from the board and tested according to the functional test that you used prior to assembling the boards? * Do the defective LED blink after the solder i

Guy's I am sorry but your dike removal process for chip components is midievil at best. The fastest way to remove a chip is with 2 solder irons. Place one iron on each end of the component. This process is completely safe and takes about 2 seconds pe
