| Chiakl | Ion Chromatography has been perfectly described by Dave, but here are a couple of extra considerations: | Ion Chromatography will tell you precisely what is present on the surface of your board/assembly but it will not tell you whether it

IC Contamination

Electronics Forum | Mon Oct 22 17:37:51 EDT 2001 | davef

I�m aware of no such standard. There may be something in Euroland [ie, IEC, etc.] TM-650 �Test Methods Manual� has procedures for measuring various types of contamination, such as: * 2.2.25 �Detection Of Ionizable Surface Contaminants� * 2.2.27 �Cl

Flux Conductivity

Peterson: Ionic flux residues when combined with moisture and a voltage differential can plate conductive �fingers� on the surface of a PCB, but that doesn�t sound like what�s going on here. Your NC flux should not be particularly conductive. For

This is my first circuit board that I am attempting to build and need a little help. Not exactly sure what is going on but maybe one of you guys could give some input. I am attaching the electrical diagram I am using. Everything thing seems to be wor

PCBA was swollen after SMD

I would switch PCB shops. Unless your oven profile is out of spec, consider a different PCB supplier. We have sourced very high volumes of PCBs (4L-6L) from offshore and can recommend a list of quality shops. Shops that we can recommend are: Sunta

Studie of the RoHS directive

Electronics Forum | Sat Jan 19 08:43:03 EST 2008 | davef

Most of the "Economic Benefits" is a bunch of hand waving, but the one forceful point is: "Four companies of our survey mentioned monetary gains. One company states that it produces the same product for the world market as a result of RoHS. Due to ea

NPI Qualification Checklist

ISO 9001-1994 and ISO 9001-2000 are significantly different regarding 'process'. In the 1994 version, processes were considered to be routine manufacturing processes [eg, drill a hole]. In the new ISO, a 'process' is more global and covers anything

Stainless Steel tabs in brd assemblies

Electronics Forum | Thu Jan 03 17:00:20 EST 2008 | davef

Recommended procedure for soldering stainless steel [Atlas Steels Australia]: * Surfaces must be clean and free of oxidation. * A rough surface improves adherence of the solder, so roughening with grinding wheel, file or coarse abrasive paper is reco
