I am designing an SMT pad for a ss metal switch. Finished copper thickness is .0014 and nickle-plating originally is 150 millionths. Initial testing yields 100,000 to 150,000 switches before intermitent failures (copper is reached.) I want 500,000

Threre has been speculation as to voiding as a function of solder paste liquiduous vs. ball liquiduous. Gas entrapment is thought to result if one melts before the other (I forget which order). Two profiles may yield different results as determined

Hello, I am currently trying to isolate internal fallout problems with very low yield substrates mixed with great yields and have recently found that we are using a Sn62/Pb36/Ag2 solder paste with full tin (no lead) components as well as Pb95/Sn5 sol

I was wondering if anyone was using this machine to place 0402's and what type of 1st pass yield you were getting. I'm a little leary about the mechanical centering on such small parts. How is the feeder pick up position after it is taught? I have h

Dear All, I have 1 product that using solder bar from vendor called Asahi. After wave process, we found quite a sticky flux residue remain on the board. Eventually, have huge impact on our ICT fisrt pass yield(FPY). Current FPY is a the range of

What is your biggest failure mode? You root cause problem could be anything from poor ICT fixture to bad incoming inspection. Generally, BGA's are a high yield producing component. Just cause they're neat-o doesn't make em' bad. As for 85% yiel

If you would be so kind, I need some fundimental data for several sources. The question is, 'What is your SMT yeild directly after reflow?'

Hi! We currently have less than 200ppm after reflow. Our products have practically no fine pitch, so it's easier to reach a low ppm.

...reasonable benchmark. 30 to 100DPMO is considered world class. All else? Well lets just call it "not-so-world-class". :) Dean

Kathy: Our RAMBUS are from last year. We are seeing 98+ yield. Sorry, we're no help. Dave F
