We see delamination at Mold compound to substrate interface when tested for MSL3. We haven't tested the substrate for cleanliness. Can you please suggest methods for this? thanks, arun

Is normal DI rinse cycle enough to wash away all residue after SMT assembly of high density substrate? This substrate would later be over molded to form MCM module package and I am seeing delamination in high density areas of the substrate at MSL3

Bruce Barton: We're not intending to suggest that anyone is purposely leaving WS flux residue on the board after cleaning. Fact is, Arun isn't sure if the boards are completely clean. Arun said, "We haven't tested the substrate for cleanliness." Gi

| Hello, | | I will be evaluating and qualifying two equipment types. The first is a fountain soldering device. I need practical advice on all the stuff you guys and gals know about as good, bad, ugly, best applications, setup, limitations, and all

Has anyone else been experiencing this lately? We have had a rash of boards that come in properly vacuum sealed. We store them in the hot room until we are ready to build, and we get bubbles under the solder mask. We've had 4 different jobs, all di

Where to find detailed information on fluxes? No one seems to know the real difference between Rosin fluxes with colophan, Resin fluxes or synthetic Resin fluxes, No Clean, Low Residues, VOC-Free, Halide-Free, Water Washable with alcohol base, Resin-

Hello Bachman. SAC305 is the most common lead-free solder alloy, not only for wave soldering but also selective. Most of our selective customers (especially automotive) are using SAC305. What is more important than the alloy to consider is the flux

No clean pastes leave more flux residues. These can result in void formation and inhibtion of underfill curing. Selection of an underfill that is compatible with the flux residue is important. One company that has written about the effect of flux

You're correct, for every dumpster full of paper written about solder, there's a sentance written about fluxes. There's dribs and drabs about fluxes in most of the soldering books [ie, Manko, Klein-Wassink, Judd, Strauss, etc] and most of that is ve
