Water soluble solder resist masking

Electronics Forum | Fri Dec 12 10:28:30 EST 1997 | David Syracuse

I am interested in locating a water soluble resist mask that does not leave a residue after wash and is easy to work with during the screen printing process. I have tried the Alpha Metals 110 and 220 solder mask and have found that it does not leave

DPMO calc and Overall Manufacturing Index (OMI) calculations

Electronics Forum | Tue Aug 28 12:05:42 EDT 2001 | mparker

The advantage of DPMO is that the numbers used are PPM, (Part Per Million), rather than percentage. Percentage can distort, depending on volume. For instance, 100 units processed, 25 defects found = 75 percent yield. 4 units processed, 1 defect found

Type K thermocouple for Super M.O.L.E

Electronics Forum | Sat Nov 03 05:19:59 EST 2001 | Ben

Hi I have question about thermocouple type use for Super M.O.L.E. I found in some article that type K T/C (Nickel-Chromium vs. Nickel-Aluminum) may suffer from temperature cycling hysteresis at above 250 degree C and also diffecult to solder. Now

In-Line Stencil Printers vs. Semi-Auto

Electronics Forum | Sun Feb 24 13:52:47 EST 2002 | bentzen

Hi Armin Printing equipment can be divided into two main groups; In-line and off-line. For "small" production sites an off-line screen printer should be adequate but for high out-put placement lines, where the product cycle-time is short, an in-line

Thickness of solder paste from stencil

Electronics Forum | Thu Apr 11 04:03:28 EDT 2002 | mwoodall

The Alpha metals Hi Check 500 is used to measure paste deposit thickness. The paste height is found from a micrometer reading determined by focussing a beam of light on a track adjacent to a paste deposit and then onto the solder paste. I've measure

Reflow PBGA

Electronics Forum | Tue Jun 25 15:30:49 EDT 2002 | Steve L

Hi everyone. I am now faced with a problem on soldering PBGA. At first, I ran the board (FR4, 7" X 10" with 12 layer) at Peak Temp: 205 C and 54 seconds above 183 C. After reflow, I found several cold solder joints and one ball without second collaps

Palladium finish and solder balls

Electronics Forum | Thu Jun 27 11:22:03 EDT 2002 | robbied

Hi there. We have had an out of control reflow oven that has allowed its temperature to fluctuate by up to +/- 20 deg C from set point in very short periods of time. We found the root cause of the problem and fixed it, but by then we had already run

type 3 vs type 4 paste

Electronics Forum | Thu Nov 07 09:23:05 EST 2002 | russ

What would the considerations be in utilizing a type 4 paste as opposed to type 3? We have an assembly that has a large amount of uBGAs (12 mil diam pad)along with 50 mil pitch BGAs assorted fine pitch etc... We are experiencing difficulty in paste

Thermal resistance of a given copper area

Electronics Forum | Fri Jun 06 16:11:25 EDT 2003 | RF Lurker

I understand that there may not be a lot of material on this, as most threads I've seen discourage doing it. It goes against DFM to do it. But I wish to use a large copper area instead of heat sink and thermal epoxy to cool a regulator. But I can'

Problem with Siemens HS180

Electronics Forum | Sat Nov 22 18:51:14 EST 2003 | lkavan

So, I have a documentation and service manulal for HS180 now. I checked HPIB addresses, it is all right. But I found, that I cannot edit whole config and machine data. In manual is written, that all datas you can edit during first instalation only. I
