| Hi everybody? | I heard that typical FR-4 would not acceptable for BGA application. | What is the main reason? | (thermal property? or CTE?) | Sombody please answer me the requirement of PCB substrate for PCB application. | Thanks. | | Youngho Son

We�ve also had glass diode difficulties- poor adhesion while all other parts are fine (including tall parts). I�ve received some interesting information from Heraeus: It seems the newer glues create a much stronger bond to SMD�s, except glass diodes.

Large voids are common in via in pad [seach the fine SMTnet Archives for earlier laments], especially in blind via. Observations on your via out gassing theory: * If the copper plating on your via is GT 1 thou, there will be no outgassing from the

Well, I can't tell you what the "glass wicking failure on PCB" are but for a standard FR4-pcb the Tg temp. or the so called glass temp. is 176 celcius degr. This means that the pcb is in between a firm and a buoyant condition. This is really a bit of

We/ve never heard of "glass wicking failure" in regards to board fab. Boat fab, yes. Look here: http://www.boatdesign.net/forums/showthread.php?t=13321 Barrel cracking appears after thermal stress during soldering, because epoxy expands in the "z"

Frazz, Why did this get instituted in the first place? Perhaps instead of making a knee jerk reaction, your company could keep the "dangerous" areas safe with safety glasses. Like around wave or moving machinery and such. You know, put some thoug

Hi fotis, Big difference between Cem3 & FR4 is that FR4 the glass is woven and Cem3 is sheet glass non-woven. for Multi layer product, i would not consider Cem3 due to increase chance of de-lam due to lack of weave for strength. Cem1 and Cem3 are

I have one suggestion why don't you align all parts and take a close look at it if you can find any misaligned component after that. IF SO, that's machine's repeatibility problem.(or mechenical problem-dirty nozzle, wrong pick up and placement height

Hello everyone out there, I have been working in the SMT process for a couple o years now, and now I'm partly responsible for the turret head component mounting process. We are about to buy new equipment and I want to do a capability study of this m

The best way that I have found to calculate CPk for placement machines is to buy the kit that is usually provided by the manufacturer of machine. It usually consists of a glass plate and glass components that are scaled. You simply program the mach
