We are working with a 16mil TSOP Land width=0.2mm(8mil) and use: 1.Type 4 particle size solder paste. 2.Laser cut electropolished stencil: Aperture width=0.19mm (we tried lower than this but had solder insufficiency). Thickness=0.005"(130 microns)

Good Day Everyone, Can anyone offer any advice on 0201 aperture design? We are looking at an application that will require them. We would like to do some experimentation first. Also, assuming an OA flux, would we need a type 4 or 5 powder paste to p

have you tried a more agressive flux like water soluble to see if the problem goes away? Or can they be hand soldered with no problem? I am basically out of ideas other than a bad nickel or tin finish. The reflow profile didn't seem out of whack f

A guideline that I use agrees with MikeS: For 20mil pitch, apertures should be 9-10mil with a stencil thickness of 5-6mils to achieve an acceptable aspect ratio of 1.7. Just be sure you are using a mesh Type 3 or 4 solder paste. Otherwise, larger par

What foil thickness? Type 3 or 4 paste? Have you checked your area ratio(s)? You could overprint or drop your foil thickness by one mil to improve the ratio and paste transfer. As always you can search the fine SMTnet archives for more info.

Can anyone please explain me main uses of all 4 types of PCB's? I understood the difference here https://www.derf.com/printed-circuit-boards-overview-and-explanation/ but want to know more about them.

Hello All. First time poster. I need to design a PCB which will include a Bumped-die type chip with 6mil (152.4 um) pad pitch. I read somewhere that FR4 type board may not be a good choice for such small footprint. I have not had to deal with board

Hi all, I'm setting up a Fuji CP-65 and I can find the machine type number for it. Can anyone help? Thanks

Yes CP4 with vision type 12 will place these no problem. I am even putting these down on an old CP3 with no problems.

Flux: No-clean pastes tend to have a wider print process window in terms of print speed and pressure. More importantly, no-clean pastes are more tolerant to changes in temperature and humidity. They also exhibit longer stencil life than water-solub
