Yes!!! How can we assemble boards with 20 pitch when we allow 0.008� error to the master art? Excellent question!!! IPC-D-300G has nothing to do with assembler requirements. It is written by and for fabricators, so that they can be comfortable.

| Earl, | As always, I am interested in what you have to say, but I am still a little vague on your application of ANSI Y14.5 as it relates to the manufacturability of an assembled printed circuit board. Are you implying that component placement coor

| | Has anyone had experience with placing BGA on gold plated boards. I thought I read a while ago there was a problem with embrittlment causing cracked joints. If anyone has experience with this your feedback would be great. | | Mike | Mike, | You

We sometimes use a peelable mask the the PCB manufacturer (board house) adds as part of their process. It may seem an expensive option but avoids: Raising P/o's for tape/peelable mask as consumables booking & inspection Booking out to the shop floo

| HI! I am a package engineer in Korea. I have some reasons | to desolder excessive solder at the lead of TSOP and TSOJ | after removing them from the board. The way with solder wick is too time-consuming and depends on the operator. | Does anyone

From what I can gather, the annular rings are used for grounding when these boards are put in housings. A screw goes through the hole and is torqued down. If there is excess solder on the annular ring, the screw doesn't seat properly. The pallets cov

The answer for us at my previous employer was water soluble flux. Wash the board, no residue. If you're not set up to wash (needing a washer, DI water source, waste treatment, ventilation, etc.) it can be expensive and space consuming. Do some resea

Greetings, We are looking to purchase equipment to rework / repair our circuit boards with BGAs. Our newer boards are starting to have more and more BGAs. Is there any information that "ranks" BGA rework stations? - a kind of a consumer reports for

I have seen similar things happen with over etching and bridging but frankly the most common mistake that gives us grief is a failure to use the component manufacturer's recommended land pattern and/or aperture designs. As opposed to generating a n
