We have no problems but orientation does matter. Orient with longest side of component body perpendicuar to wave. In other words the same preference as with through hole DIPS. Idea is the same as for through hole, that the surface tension will ten

I'd be surprised if CCGA leads were getting bent or tilted during the reflow soldering process. If they were bent during handling, that would be less surprising. 235*C on the body for a minimum peak temperature of 208*C at the connecting leads does

Hello to all. for certain time, we have been struggling with some issues on a PCB where have tombstoning on 0402 components (due to pad design) and dewetting in qfp256 0.5 mil pitch (discussed on another threads on this forum) component, we have pro

I would be glad to help you eliminate the solder balling and beading that you are seeing. As this is a fairly common defect, I would like to forward you an Application Note that we have developed that explains the cause and possible solutions. Most

The Contamination has proven to be pretty random, lots of stainless steel though in fact two cases in the past two days. As far as I know all machinery is cleaned regularly as well, even the stencil washer itself. The boards we make are 90% (at l

First, we agree with Loco that your QFP is nonwetting, rather than dewetting. Your sceen-shots look like ol' timey SnPb paste recipes. Turn-up the heaterometer dial. Second, on nitrogen: * We kinda think your O2 needs to be around 100ppm with 99.99%

Hi there Gary, Your solder ball problem is very similar the problem I experienced, but I was using a water soluble paste at the time. It started by inspectors telling me that they were seeing cold solder on some SIMM's that we had built regularly. W

| | Couple of questions. | | 1) Are we talking alumina substrates as the ceramic material? | | 2) Are we co-firing gold as the conductors on the substrate surface? | | 3) In other words, is this a hybrid thick film circuit? | | 4) If so, how large or
