What is the recommanded profile for board which consist of 0402 & 0201 comps. to reduce the effect of tomb-stone. Slow ramp rate ? how slow is considered as slow. Soak time 60 or 120 C,at which end should I stick to? what is the best time before reac

Wow, what a string of answers and nobody brought up the easiest way to eliminate solder balls. Yes, the paste being squished under the part does reflow and work it's way out to the side during reflow. I did a 5 week study on this (when I was a bori

Ashok: I have three answers to your questions on moisture sensitive devices: 1. What is general practice on incoming / receiving inspection of moisture sensitive devices- which boils down to mostly FPDs and BGAs ? Traditionally, FPD packs were opene

This all depends on the mixture of your solder. If you are using water soluable flux then it will get clean. But not alcohol based flux. As for using the ultrasonic this might be a problem I personally have never heard of someone washing a board in a

I have got a number of assemblies back from a customer with feedback that the solder fillet is less than 25% of chip height per IPC-Standard-610B Class 2. Most of my joints are having good wetting but fillet height does not meet min ht requirement of

Hi all, Best Thing Since Sliced Bread? No doubt many of you have seen Phil Zarrow's "over-the-top" review in Circuits Assembly of the new Ersa scope, a device that allows viewing a really neat close up a side view of the component substrate interface

Hello Kris If you do have and OSP coating I'd say Curtis has nailed it. But you seem to have references to gold. Does this board have a standard nickle/gold finish. If so what sort of "solder on gold" problems were you having? Reading between the

Steve , I use a general set of guidlines when developing reflow profiles: Ramp rate to 140 deg C - 50-60 seconds Time at preheat (140-160 deg C) - 90-120 sec Time above liquidous (183 deg C) - 45-90 sec Time at peak (215-225 deg C) - 9-12 sec peak t

All, I am having a problem with joints being soft after SMT. Especially 25 mil and smaller parts. It seems as though you can slide the leads right off of the solder. It takes only about 30-40 oz. of compression at 45 deg. to move leads off of join

| Hi, | | We are running 0402 component on the TCM1000 and we find that teher will be missalignment on 0402 Capositor. We have identified that the missalignment is caused by the wrong information from the vision system while doing vision centering.
