| I need a memory jog. What is the term for the growth of conductive contamination after a board is in storage or field? | There are several different mechanisms which can cause this. In reality, ionic contamination is the root cause for many of the

| | We are currently using a 65/35 solder for our wave process but are considering switching to a 63/37 for a substantial cost savings. No one here seems to know why we everused a 65/35 formulation in the first place. | | I understand 63/37 to be pre

| There is a practise within the industry of an Inspector inspecting a board, and that same Inspector performing touch-up. My opinion is that the Inspection and Touch-up operations should be separate functions whereby the Inspector is not performing

| This is not strictly a surface mount query but any input welcome | I am thinking of using surface mount solder thief pads for a through hole connector. The connector is two rows of 0.1" pitch pins and on waving there is often a bridge on the last t

| Hi Folks, | This is my first surface mount board, so I asked our assembly house for some tips. They said only passives on the bottom side-preferably no smaller than 0805, 0603 only if I have to. I would think that an SOT-23 would be OK on the botto
