The problem is there are also studies showing reduced reliability. Early thoughts were that if you got complete reflow of both solder materials then you'd be fine, but several studies have shown that there's something going on that's not well unders

good Morning, it looks from the peak temperature that this is a RoHS application? If so, is the BGA that you are having issues with leaded? If so, you might be experiencing "ball drop" where the ball becomes disconnected from the component substrate

Hi Has anyone managed to accurately produce a spreadsheet or formula that will accurately calculate the amount of boards your SMT line will produce an hour. I work in a high mix low volume industry and we are constantly taking on new jobs but have n

Dear All During SMT process, some Tant caps were fell down without touching Epoxy . I found the problematic Tant Termanations were bended with gap. So I called to Vender and expalined this gap but the answer was the gap was within their standard and

Dave has stated the caveats well. I too have similar experience in reworking BGAs that mirrors your own. The only situation where I saw this as an issue, was in memory devices where a row of BGAs might share a commonm heatsink. In those cases the

Dear All, I am a totally new to the SMT process. In fact, I just had an overview course regarding the whole process of PCBA manufacturing and I have know a bunch of questions in my head. Most of them are linked to the solder paste printing process

We used to have a Nuclean 324 that was running closed loop with a DI water recirc system. We also had problems with foaming that was solved with a relatively simple fix. We bypassed the final rinse solenoid so that it was always running. This allo

If you are doing X-Ray post place and pre-reflow you should be good. Look elsewhere. Check profile - full lead free or hybrid? Be sure you are acheiving the required reflow temps and TAL required for the solder paste too. Check for belt movement

Ken, The photo looks like results I have seen because the gold flash was too thick on the board. This causes a condition known as gold imbrittlement. You may want to get an analysis of the plating thickness. I'm not real experienced with immersion si

I have only one incredible idea: this is example of different speed of heat transfer of neighboring pads. I saw it two times during last years, but on lead solder pastes (Sn63Pb37). The reason of this mistakes each times we found two: 1. errors duri
