Mike: I�d hate to see you making design decisions, based solely on the discussion here, but that this would be an impetus to consult IPC-D-279, "Design Guidelines ... " and take a course on designing reliable boards. Werner Engelmaier (Engelmaier

IPC-610 Rev B: Paragraph 4.1 (page 52), As an exception to fil requirements on Table 4-1 on thermal heat sink planes plated through holes, a 50% vertical fill of solder is permitted, but with solder extending 360 degrees around the lead with 100% wet

I will start with the statement that I think it is great that we have the ability to solder SMT components that emulates wave soldered components. With that in mind, I would want to find acceptance criteria to be similiar, regardless of the solder me

GT 8 years ago every board saw "touchup". Touch was done to fix boards to conform to A-610. Now A-610 allows less than complete hole fill. Our operators were totally freaking nuts about touching boards. They touched each others touch and on and o

Hi Guys, We prints solder paste on via hole as the holes are used as the test points. This is a clean process. In normal production, upon completion of a primary side, board will proceed to secondary process immediately. The problem happened when

We used to bake [100*C for 6 hours] all of our boards, but no longer bake at all. Before going off, your bake recipe is probaly OK. If anything, it's probably too short. Consider measuring the weight of wet boards, baking for a time, measure, bake

Assuming you are working to IPC standards, are you working to Class2 or Class 3? Class 2 has an exception to the 75% barrel fill (para 6.3.1, page 6-7). "As an exception to fill requirements of Table 6-2 on PTHs with thermal planes or conductor

We have recently started building a new assembly that is exhibiting some strange behavior. We are seeing what look like blow holes in wave soldered joints. When the joints are touched up, the solder in the barrel will actually bubble up from the ho

First, don't get too excited about the thermal capabilities of conductive epoxy. An epoxy like DuPont CB-100 increases the amount of heat conducted through the barrel, but many over estimate what it can do. Calculations show for a 0.020" drilled
