I need a little help with RF and Rogers 4003 board material. My background was in digital and now I need to set up a new line to make small RF products (.5" x .5" or smaller). I want to find out about board platings, finishes/maskings and reasonable

There is a practise within the industry of an Inspector inspecting a board, and that same Inspector performing touch-up. My opinion is that the Inspection and Touch-up operations should be separate functions whereby the Inspector is not performing th

Even when you run a board several times, the machine may not make the same travel path every time. This in itself does not create a problem, but the vacuum on the nozzles could be different, dependent on the configuration of components on the heads.

I think the 1st option would be the best. I have found that a touch up person WILL TOUCH UP SOMETHING, regardless of the electrical needs of the board. This leads to a lot of unnecessary rework of joints. I would hope QC is tracking the defects and t

Yes we do have a problem with this. We have by now investigate numerous lead/RoHS PCBA:s The RoHS boards are by far the most difficult one's to probe and test. Our people at the "test area" including Flying Probe and ICT they spend a lot of time to t

Hi, We have two complete SMT line and in this department we use conveyors for board manipulation. Concerning the wave area we are not full efficiency and I have to look for conveyors and bar code reader to make board manipulation an automatic proces

Why would a board failure related problem be a process problem. I agree most companies believe EVERY problem is a Proces Problem, but in the real world we know this is not true. A pad lifting means your solder joint was able to rip it off the boa

Hi All, I'm hoping there is a PCB expert or two hanging around. We're having some solderability issue on our boards. The finish is ENIG but it doesn't seem to be related to the finish process itself. We did SEM and EDX analysis and found aluminum an

Hi there! If they are just standard headers there's a company called Teka that makes headers and socket headers with solder preforms in them. They call it "Solder Bearing Lead Technology" You can drop them in the board and reflow them just like SMT p
