empf issued an excellent study of calculated solder volume in the 90's. It used lotus 123 but is easily used in excel. I have used it for over 10 years. The only thing wrong is with leadless components. the amount of paste required generally is insuf

All of what Dave says is spot on. I suspect that the most likely corresponding defects on your assemblies would be poor wetting and insufficient solder.

Question...when the machine said something was wrong, was it reading something wrong (false failure), or was there a true descrepancy but not one that resulted in a bad connection (bridge or insufficient)? Also, did you perform a DOE on the process

“For a number of years now, work has been proceeding in order to bring perfection to the crudely conceived idea of a transmission that would not only supply inverse reactive current for use in unilateral phase detractors, but would also be capable of

Hi there, We place FBGA packages on a lot of our memory modules. Our stencils have .013" square apertures and a .005" foil thickness. We are using a type 4 paste from Senju Comtek. The price difference is not that significant and readily available

We are running a number of boards with 8-10 25 mil PQFPs on board. Our process is mature with at least 3 years experiance and statistically few opens on the QFPs. Our beloved purchasing department has chased the almighty $ and changed FAB vendors

Hi We are running automatic stencil printers, open squeegees, stainless stencil, stainless blades, print speed 25-30mm/sec. We have a frustrating consistency issue printing .37x.3mm apertures on a 45pin LGA (11 pads each side, 1 large ground in mid

Hi there!! You know what your QA is doing is right, coz by measuring the solder paste height can avoid the following defects: 1.Insufficient solder 2.Short solder or bridging 3.Solder balls SPC monitoring for paste height checking is required
