I have this part: 142-1711-801 (Emerson). It is an SMT/TH part. https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/cinch-connectivity-solutions-johnson/142-1711-801/9992851 I want to reflow the part instead of hand soldering and/or reworking the solder jo

Sebas, I suspect that your finding of needing the fillet for the card to work is a false finding. One that I dealt with for many years in assembly. As a bottom terminated device, a fillet to the side terminals of the device is not required. Adequ

It looks like a giant dpak device but with 5 leads. The problem is that on approx 3% of our boards one more pins are open circuit. It appears that the pins are not in contact with the pads. Board is HASL finish IR oven Paste Koki 953i. If you have a

Another test to consider is dye penetrant analysis. The technique involves flooding the area beneath the soldered part with dye (preferably a bright color, like red). After drying the board+dye in an oven, you peel or torque the part off and inspec

| Does anyone know of an AOI system that can look at the solder joints of SMT chip devices (1206,0805 & 0603) and make a reliable presence/abscence call of the joint on a HASL PCB. A low false call rate (much less than 1%)is required. Any info. fro

2 suggestions - Get a good scope - at least a 4X, but more like a 6X, 10X is best. You have a choice on used equipment for a substantial savings. A Leica Stereo 4 zoom is it. You can look for BGA scopes that have a 90` angle for looking at the balls

surely, a big picture perspective is in order to keep from charging off, tilting at windmills and waning Quixotic. Just to tic ya off a bit more (come on now, smile), would those 2 boards in rework have just one defect each or are there multiple def

Hi, I am having problems reworking a lead free PBGA (23mm x 23mm, 1mm pitch). The board is relatively small (5" X 4" X 0.063"). During the removal stage, a thermocouple was placed at the solder ball level (between the board and underneath of compo

Scratches do not necessarily mean bad! Usually the forcer motor fails before a platen. The motors become weak or don't evenly distribute the supplied air, which causes them to tilt and drive into the platens. Mechanical misalignment of the VY forcer
