Oh, well if you can profile, model your profile to the profile supplied by the paste manufacturer. Anything outside of their recommended profile is all experimantal.

Defining the thickness of solder between the lead and the pad, J-001 states "Properly wetted fillet shall be evident." J-001 is available from http://www.ipc.org. Factors that affect this are: * Amount and composition of solder * Amount and compo

Our two component suppliers use 99.5Sn/0.5Cu and 97Sn/3Ag solder (respectively) for tinning their leads. We use 98.9Sn/.66Cu/.33Ag solder in our wave solder machine. Is there any significant advantage to either tinning process regarding solderabili

my oven has a built in profiler, it works fairly well, but it can not predict changes. my main concern was about the time right before reflow. i know that's where the flux is activated and i was worried that i may be spending too much time at the tem

You can keep only the 5th zone as the reflow zone. And lower the first two zones to keep a good ramping rate. Meanwhile,please note the ting temperature in software or control panel is not the exact temperature in your PCB, you'd better get a KIC or

I am trying to optimize my reflow profile. i have a 5 zone oven. lead-free: for the 1st 3 zones, i am good, at about 150-200 deg for 150 seconds. during the 4th zone, i am at a temp of 200-220 for 50 seconds. during the 5th zone, i am at 220-245 f

As far as I know, the limitations apply to to the manufacturing components, not the equipment per say. At this point there is no set date for the US at the national level. Basically our government is run by big businesses and their effect on our na

I am not very concerned about production time, but it is always a thought! Quality is more importnant of course. We have 2 different pastes, with almost identical requirements. We can get close to their profiles, but i am worried that i am spending

Some people involved in PCB assembly process claim that SMD components reflow soldering problems are often caused by traces running under a component. According to this claim, trace (or any copper) covered by solder mask and placed under SMD componen
