| Hello, | Our PWB supplier has requested that a change in the laminate material to reduce the incidence of pad lifting. The standard laminate materials (Polyclad PCL-FR-226 with a glass transition temperature of 135 C) have greater z-axis thermal e

FR-4 will be OK for small products such as cellular phones. Here the temperature gradient across the board may be 3-4C only, and the board temperature can be well controlled. At temperature above around 245C, the discoloration and delamination may be

First, we don�t like pallets, but ya gotta do wat ya gotta do!!! Second, we used to pallet after print and before place, but we lost so many prints messing with palleting boards that we now pallet, print, place. Third, most of our pallets are �home

We are converting from COB to SMT on a product line and want to optomize the PCB as far as Laminate, plating, passivation etc. This is a high temp application 150C. We are presently using BT Laminate but would like to get away from this. We are lo

Hi Everybody Is anyone aware of the possible causes that may lead to voids in the solder bumps after assembly. We assembled some dice on thin substrates and after assembly, void formation in the solder bumps were observed. We have already trie

rush316 First, no one stated that PBB and/or PCBE are in FR4. FR4 contain tetra-bromo-bisphenol A [TBBA]. Second, there are classes [and grades] of dielectric materials used in fabricating printed circuit boards. Grades, NEMA LI-1. From these gr

It is also possible to etch the barcodes directly on the PCB by using a laser. The solder resist mask is easily burned by laser and if there is copper underneath the contrast is quite good. The contrast is satisfactory even if there is no metal under

Necoleta, PWB Blistering/De-lamination may not be due for Titanium finished threads / holders which is typically being used to draw high Shelf Life of Pallets and even flow across Auto Wave Soldering rails. There is also nothing to suspect on Liquid

Where can I find laminates containing non-halogenated PCB? I'm especially interested in FR-4 and CEM-3, 1.6 mm 25um. Thanks in advance! Dr. Lennart Johansson Polymer Support
