| | I'm looking for some good articles on reflowing of double sided SMT boards. I'd like to come up with a process for low volume prototyping, but need to understand the do's and don'ts. | | | Hello, | you can get some insight by typing in double s

| Has anyone ever heard of testing solder paste quality by pasting a board and making a determination of the quality by measuring paste height and width after the board is pasted. Would you consider this a valid test for solder paste testing? | I ag

| Hi everyone, | We started our first machine placed shield test today.We will be machine placing shields with in the next two months. I used a Fuji Qp242 today. There were no problems with pickup etc,. just vision errors. I'm sure we will work the

We are having a small number (~2%) of our boards pass our manufacturing diagnostics, fail once they reach the customer, fail when they get back to us and then start working again after handling them for a short time. We have eliminated a lot of item

Warp depends on: * How close the board gets to its Tg during the solder cycle (the closer you get to the Tg the worse the warp gets) * Amount of copper on each side and the balance between the two * Thickness of the board * Overall length x width * T

This conversation reminds me of the old �How Many Engineers Does It Take To�� joke. We manufacturer the ionic contamination (ROSE, SEC) testers and I am not aware of anyone that performs such exacting surface area calculations. Most people use th

Hello all, We have received reports from two customers about electrical leakage on pcb assemblies that used Kester paste #HM531 (63/37) and washed with Kester 'Bio-kleen' saponifier and DI water. The leakage is such that when the boards receive power

IMHO, depending on whether its a regular run model, or a properly designed/setup pilot run model, getting a mean 75%-95% First Pass Yield (FPY%) is possible as a benchmark target. This is derived from your manufacturing history capabilities, and requ
