What methods do you guys use for maintaining lot and/or board traceability? When I worked in med. products, we used travelers that we recorded everything on, then serialized them at the end of the build. Not as effective as up front serialization,

What do others use as far as solder paste type, stencil thickness and aperature size for a .4mm Ball Pitch CSP. Ball diameter is .3mm. Please let me know your thoughts or what you use. Thanks

We'd expect both OSP poor wetting and improper reflow recipe to show-up in more places than just this one component. But if those are the only choices, we'll go for 'wrong solder paste.' Ooops, that's not one of the choices. Ok, OK, we'll take poo

There are a few emerging technologies that have been growing in popularity for the past few years. Pin through paste, press fit connectors and selective soldering machines seem to be displacing custom fixtures. Most of the mixed technology boards o

Jim, In most cases if you can eliminate a process you will save money. With that in mind, an all surface mount or all through hole design is prefered. There are alternatives to that rule, like hybrid designs that can be pin and paste soldered. It al

By the way, what type of preheaters do you have? IR? Convection? If you have IR, there may be a way to cheat. Vince W

| We are in the process of getting into no-clean paste and fluxes. One important issue in this is sodler balling. I have heard some people say that having a matte finish would help in having lesser solder balls and that the solder balls would not b

Steve, I agree with the recommendation to check the temperature. This is the first place to go. Is this an IPA or water based Noclean? What is the topside temp of the assembly at the effected areas? If you are too cold you will have a tendency to hav
