When not practical to drill hole into pcb to profile here is what I do and seems to be just fine. place thermo into area underneath BGA and let her rip, you will not be in the ball/solder joint, but the temp difference as long as you are in the arra

Greg, All the above. It looked like it was going to be a drop for SNPB HASL at first but after a few thousand boards we started running into all the problems you are describing. We first started seeing non wetting on SMT pads. The solder would wet t

I am looking for advice on purchasing a Pb-Free Wave Solder System. No salespeople or wavemaster larry please. We are a small company with limited resources for evaluating equipment. I am hoping to get some sage advice from the experts here at SMT

Here's the BGA voids-reduction profile that I used: http://img323.imageshack.us/my.php?image=profileka0.jpg Keep in mind, this was for Sn/Pb BGA with Sn/Pb solder paste. For your situation, you might want to raise the peak temperatures to at least

ok, sorry ,750 was deg F and which I said 350~400 were deg C, I got a mistake. As I know, we use 660~720 deg F to do reworking for lead free solders such as SAC series and SnCu0.7 series solder to protect irons and components on boards. when temp.

*We've tried the WSP80s for leadfree, also SAC. Problem with these was when they are not being used, they keep their temp and oxidate like hell. Second problem is as Russ states, the sensor is not in the tip, therefore to get the same heat in the t

I am wondering how to move from hand soldering our ceramic caps to doing a reflow type process. The reason for the change is too many cracked ceramic caps. I have asked our vendors to assemble our boards via reflow but because of our hardware (swaged

Hi John, Depending on your board, it could make a difference. Copper finishes might leave that part of the pad exposed, which is a no-no in most places. Where as a HASL board prolly won't care if you pulled the print back. On the other end, over

Thoughts are: * Eliminate solder spotting on gold fingers through process improvement in broard handling, printing paste control, and reflow recipe development. Search the fine SMTnet Archives for previous discussions. * Dispense or print a reflow te

Answers: The component does take solder, no problem We get a full barrel fill with an empty PCB but only on one of the holes, the other hole has so much copper around it. The flux reached the top of the PCB when I tested the empty PCB. The IPC-A-610
