| | Has any one seen failures of chip resistors after 1-2 years where the junction between the silver termination and the restive element on the top of the ceramic has corroded through. This results in a high resistance failure after this period of t

Mr Lao We have some specialist knowledge on this subject and offer both equipment and services for these tests. My first recommendation is that take coupons manufactured by your PC Fabricator and then samples at each manufacturing stage: Bare coupon

I think OA flux left on the pot would quickly looses its activity and become part of the dross waste stream, and smoke stream for that matter. Also, if your wave is setup properly your selective pallets will scour (push) the top of the lambda wav

Assemblers often assume that the board and component suppliers provide them with clean product. This was not a problem when everyone used water washable fluxes, because the water washing used to clean the flux residues also cleaned the board and com

Zinc from the brass diffuses into the solder and reacts with tin causing dezincification. Dezincification is a specific type of de-alloying, or selective, leaching corrosion of brass fittings. This type of corrosion selectively removes zinc from th

Hi Sean, No-clean flux does leave a residue. Under the best conditions, it is invisible. There are many factors that can cause the residue to become visible such as an inadequate oven profile (or lack of proper preheat on a wave). Also, if wave s

Neither the Omega meter nor the IC are officially "destructive" tests, but everywhere I worked we treated them that way. The boards were scrapped after the test. The Omega meter can be tested at elevated temps, but the IC sample is extracted at ele

Thanks for the kind words Dave. At no point in my reply was I trying to sell anything. I apologize to anyone who believes otherwise. I agree with the poster, if assemblies are going to be cleaned, consider a flux designed to be cleaned. While this is
