Bow and twist of PCB's

Electronics Forum | Fri Apr 20 07:30:14 EDT 2001 | wbu

In short: the measured deviation / the length this deviation occurs * 100% = % of deviation Actually we encounter mostly "twist" so we put the board on a flat surface, hold it down at the corners to see if any of the corners lifts, measure the heig

Most bowing I see is caused by an asymetrical layer stackup of the PCB. (different copper thicknesses throughout the stackup) e.g. for a 4 layer board - 2 oz. copper on layer 1, 1 oz. copper on layer 4, etc... I would doubt that is the V-score since

Q1) Simple way to measure the PCB warpage A1) IPC-TM-650; Method 2.4.22 Bow & Twist Q2) What is the maximum warpage can the SMT machine allow the to accept and place the component without problem. A2) That depends. IPC-A-610 Acceptability of Elect

Need help from the experts on 1)simple way to measure the PCB warpage 2)what is the maximum warpage can the SMT machine allow the to accept and place the component without problem. 3)I have seen some people are using 7mils/inch as a Warpage spec. a

Sorry for stating this incorrectly. It should been: Bow & twist for bare boards and panels: IPC-A-610 Acceptability of Electronic Assemblies, 10.6: 1.5% for PTH only and 0.75% for SMT, acording to test method TM-650, method 2.4.22 IPC-6012, par. 3.

Mike, we use carrier's as a matter of course on all wave products, it let's us keep the conveyor width the same all the time so speed's up change overs and eleimiates one more thing that can be set wrong. The main aim of the exercise is to be able

Help us understand your situation better: ARE THE QFP BOWED? If so, * Where are the QFP bowed? * Is the QFP body bowed or is it just the leads? * How much are the QFP bowed? * Are all QFP the same part number, from the same supplier, date code

You may want to look at IPC 7721 Method 3.2 Bow and Twist Repair. In extreme cases you may need clamp or weight the pcb with bow in the other direction to yield a "flat" pcb in the unrestrained state. You will have to take the PCB up to or slightly
