We're getting geared up to start placing 0402 comps. for the first time. I'm trying to "touch all my bases" before we actually go live. I've verified our placement machine capabilities and investigated my solder paste performance in regards to 0402'

Greg, The increased space and hence potentially increased airflow will have no effect on "solderability." It may effect the temperature that the balls see and that is a different issue that can be worked from a profile standpoint if you are not hit

I'm interested in process information from someone who has experience with this package, such as pad design, stencil aperture dimensions, stencil thickness, unique issues, profiling, solder paste. Design is considering this package for future produc

Hi, Last Friday, we had a new defect in our line. We found a nice and shiny solder fillet completelly attached to some component leads (in a SPLCC 84) but the solderjoints were not solder to the pads. (Hasl finishing) Any idea ?? Some contamination

Hi Jose, J-lead are very sesitive to coplanarity, which is the major cause for the defect you described. Other posibility is that there is not enough solder paste ; J-lead need around 10% more solder past then L-lead, You have to consider the screen

Albert: Several points: � Bi should have no effect on your no-clean. The flux you select with your Pb/Sn/Bi wire solder could be an area for concern tho. � Bi will form an alloy with Pb with a melting point of 93�C. � Look at "Process Change - Rya

Tuan - How about Sn/0.7Cu? It's M.P. is 227 and it's readily available. If the leads are Gold plated you might consider pre-tinning them. If you need a higher temp alloy any of the major solder companies can help - I suggets you start with Ind
