So that is common when the temp on the wash is high? The temp was adjusted for a flux that required a higher temp. How much of an issue is this tin oxide?

In my opinion, it is not possible to eliminate the oxidation in a component because oxidation it is not removable .. the only solution is to apply a mechanical operation (scraping) and then tinning the part..

Any Suggestions on How to remove oxidation on connector pins. The boards have been sitting for awhile and can't be washed due to transformers and open relays that are on the board.

Can you brush some flux on the connector pins and run them through a heat cycle, hot enough to activate the flux, but not enough for solder to melt or component damage? That should remove most of the oxidation. Then, you can run it through your regul

| During inspection and test we find leads which do not get soldered. Some are because of insufficient paste, but with others everything looks right. This will only happen on 1 to 2 pins, and it is not isolated to a specific type of ic or location o

| While inspecting incoming PCBs we detected around all plated-through-holes (only there and all in the same place) some halfmoonshaped light rings that match obviously only with the pink ring symptom shown in the IPC-A-600 chapter 2.5.2.. That would

Here's one for you lot, dos anyone have a method or a vendor that can clean the ball's of BGA's of oxides to bring them back to 'new' conditions ? I've got a bathc of components that are fairly old and I get some issues with soldering them which I b

Have you tried using a paste with a more aggressive flux? Our main paste is Indium, but whenever we run into oxidized parts or have soldering problems due to oxidation on pads we use an older Alpha WS paste called WS609. The drawback of this paste is

Q: Could any of you guys tell me what exactly is this greenish thing ? A: No, but is not copper oxide. Copper oxide is brown, the color of a penny [here in the US] or an untreated copper laminated trace on a board. Many copper salts are greenish in
