EMS-Engineer, Lead free alloys have a very low wetting creep. You probably will not ever get the same type of weting with a LF as opposed to SN 63/37. The question is if it is acceptable. Lead free solder joints cannot be inspected to the same crite

Dear all, Referring comment from Mr. Jack,IPC director certification & assembly technology, the term "fillet tearing" is too broad. Cracks or fractures in the required fillet area, with SnPb or LF alloy and whether you call it tearing or not, is a D

Dear all, Referring technical report from Vitronics Soltec, "Pad lifting, fillet lifting and fillet tearing issues in LF soldering". The use of LF solder alloys today has brought about a recurrence of this crack formation, called fillet tearing. The

It all depends where the voids are, and that's tough to do with a transmission x-ray. One needs to be able tilt the assembly at 45-degrees during x-ray, so you can get an idea where the void is. Or, you spend some big bucks for an x-ray laminography

Based on X-ray imaging, IPC-7095 standard specifies three categories for void size for BGA solder joints. These categories are based on the percentage of joint cross sectional area occupied by the voided area. Class III Small: Void area is LT 9% Cla

There are no requirements acceptance criteria for baking of board assemblies. What are your customer requirements? The common reasons people choose to bake PCB are to prevent: * Delamination of multilayer boards * Measles, particularly on double si

Hi Guys, (Note: We are not talking about bill-board RES/CAP, we are talking about Z-axis slant/tilted RES/CAP with respect to the PCB pad Z-axis plane). 1) We ref through the IPC-A-610C specification "bible", and can not find a "chapter/verse" tha
