Does anyone have information regarding: -Moisture level (wt%) that may cause delamination in PCB�s. -Baking time and temperature if using a Vacuum Drying Cabinett and if using an air oven. (What I�m most interested of is Poly-Imid-Aramid.) -Are ther

AJ, We use all ENIG boards. After opening, any remaining boards are kept in low humidity keeping cabinet. I have never experienced a problem using this method I think the longest I have kept them this way is eighteen months. We also store any open tr

You have received some great feedback so far. I would like to summarize and add a few points regarding maintenance. You should start (as recommended already) by verifying your component library data. Using the default values from the master library i

If I understand correctly you want to pick BGAs from the ball side using some type of vacuum arrangement. You will find that the reliability of this is dependant on the size of the balls and the pitch. The larger the balls and tighter the pitch, th

Does anyone use or have any simple wave/reflow oven exhaust monitors with a visual check (LED). I was going to design something crude resembling a fan with an electric winding (electric motor of sorts)and a load (resistor maybe with a transistor if

Hi all, Need some advice on wavesolder pinholes issues. The PCBs are stored in a warehouse for 6 months and not vacuum packed. Before wavesodlering, boards are baked 2 hrs at 110 deg. But every piece of it has pinholes at random locations. PCB i

Seriously, OSP?, change the board finish, you are the OEM, correct? You have the power! Also, as another poster mentioned, high force applied at ICT ( possibily to cut through the OSP goop ?!? ) could be warping the board enough to crack the joints.
