Marc: Please be more explicit. * When you say, "parts have a metal shell"; are you talking about the component leads or the component body? What is the metal, what is it appearance, and what are it's implications? * When you say, "the parts have a

As I said, I'm new, and I've never seen the adhesive dot method. I'm certian our company will stick with paste, though, because we make our own boards (with a vertical plater no less!!!) and contamination is quite an issue. We do a fair amount of rew

Erli, Thanks for your feedback. The BGA hybrids were baked before production. I had a particular date code that we dis-continued using. This date code was consistently voiding near or above 25%. The other date codes still produced voiding on ave

According to MyData, you'll need a new computer box. The older computers in the TP's don't support VGA, for some silly reason. So you're stuck with the RGB monitors. I haven't tried, but, I suspect that if you were to get a new(er) video card, ins
