Isn't this a blatant violation of rules? Couldn't Bill have e-mailed a response directly to the poster? I'm not sure if acts like this frustrate users that actually are the people who work in this industry but it definately frustrates suppliers who

His subject line is "Tantalum caps causing misaligned parts". Come on guys, I think he answered the question already. Is there any via/traces that connects the pads of the TANT to the 0805 and the BGA. Your two parts may be physically the same, bu

We had a "Spring loaded" fixture that pulled the Flex tight and used loads of Board supports. There were pins that went through the Connectors holes and held the flex firm. We only had a few components so it was no problem. Lucky for us because the f

Steven, While agreeing with your method here, I also would like to ask a question since we're right on that subject. Have you ever experienced problems with IR heating while working with a Heat-Slug BGA, or a Viper BGA where the whole top is covere

If you want someone to do it for you, hire a consultant. IF you think its going to be handed to you over the web, get real. I don't think coke Inc would be where it is today if it published the formula to coke. For that matter, any CM or OEM would

Hi Tom, I did talk to Bob Gilbert about the sn100c. His comment is that it is a nickle stabalized alloy. Simplisticly, the tin and copper molecules would rather bond with the nickle. He also mentioned that with the SAC alloys, the manufactuers were

Another thing : Make sure that there are no other mags plugged into the machine while you are trying to trouble shoot slot 3. I have seen shorted vibratory ID chips mess up other magazines up in different slots. For instance : a shorted vibe in slo

What Bruce is referring to is a TPSys Data server. You can give it any name that you like (in Bruce's case, it must be called MyServ). I think what he is asking is after the reboot, does it have trouble reconnecting to the 'master' (whether that be a
